Wanted to give a shout-out today to Chrissy Chamberlain, who last night became the career RBI leader at the University of Dubuque. Unfortunately, no one seems to know the exact number, but somehow they know she took the lead last night with a single versus #7-ranked Coe College.
Chrissy, the only senior on the squad, has had a long and distinguished career at UD. In addition to her hitting (the article says she is one of the top two hitters in the IIAC for batting average and slugging percentage), she has also been a standout pitcher there. She came into last night's game in relief and pitched five innings after starting the game at first base.
The nice thing about all of this is Chrissy is also a class act and a great person. It's nice to see one of the good ones get ahead these days.
UD has games against #5-ranked Central on Saturday, so she still has an opportunity to pad that lead. Good luck, Chrissy, and congratulations. It's nice to leave your mark on the school that way!
