Left fielder Ellee Eck woke up Tuesday morning feeling antsy, not super-strong or hyped, or a few hours from joining an exclusive power club at Wichita State.

"Honestly, I felt kind of nervous," she said. "This is a good game to attack. Build confidence going into the weekend. I had to tell myself to calm down in the box."

By Tuesday afternoon, Eck had every reason to feel super-strong and hyped for a weekend series against Charlotte. She hit three home runs in Wichita State's 15-2 win over Kansas City in five innings at Wilkins Stadium.
