This marks the third NFCA weekly honor for Jensen-McFarland, who earned the award in 2017 as a freshman and last year during her junior campaign. Over five games at the Judi Garman Classic, the senior outfielder finished the weekend batting .643 (9-for-14) with eight RBI and seven runs scored. Jensen-McFarland, who doubled, tripled and launched three home runs, slugged 1.500 and registered a .684 on-base percentage (four walks).
