Senior Holly Tankersley (Kirbyville, Texas) added yet another accolade to her long list of credits on Tuesday night as she was named to the 2008 Women’s College World Series All-Tournament Team.



The 12-player all-tournament team, which was announced at the conclusion of the WCWS, featured five members from the champions Arizona State, two players from runner-up Texas A&M, as well as, top-seed Florida. Louisiana, Alabama and Virginia Tech each placed one player on the team.



The All-American outfielder belted two home runs during the Ragin’ Cajuns three games at the WCWS including an extra-inning bomb to straight away centerfield to lift the Cajuns to a 3-2 victory over No. 1 Florida.



She hit two of the nine total home runs belted at the WCWS. Tankersley joined Florida’s Francesca Enea as the only two players this year to hit multiple home runs at the Women’s College World Series.



Tankersley finished the season leading the Cajuns in batting average, slugging percentage, on base percentage, runs scored, hits, RBI, triples and home runs.



She finished the year one-thousandth of a point behind Danyele Gomez (2003-06) for the top batting average in a season in school history at .441. Tankersley also ranked in the Cajuns’ single season top-5 in base hits (86), home runs (23), RBI (74), total bases (173), slugging percentage (.887) and walks (44).



Tankersley finished her career in the Cajuns’ all-time top-5 in batting average (.387), runs scored (218), home runs (71), RBI (231), total bases (530), slugging percentage (.756), walks (157) and hit by pitch (28).
