Cloud County Community College freshman Maddie Harold has been named the Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference (KJCCC) Division 2 Softball Pitcher of the Week for the second time this season, the conference announced on Tuesday, April 28.

Harold was electric in the circle in back-to-back days for Cloud County, tossing two complete games with a road win at Independence and at home against Highland Community College last week. Opening the week against the Pirates, Harold allowed one earned run on four hits, striking out nine and helping the T-Birds to a road sweep of Independence for the first time since 2018. The next day against Highland, Harold tossed a one-hit shutout, striking out a career-high 11 in the team's 7-0 win. The 20 strikeouts for the week now give Harold 109, the tops among all KJCCC D2 softball players.

At the plate, Harold also leads Cloud County with a .441 batting average with a team-best 11 home runs and 43 RBI.

Harold and the rest of the T-Birds are set to wrap up KJCCC play against the Cowley College Tigers on Thursday, April 30. Game one will start at 1 pm and will be streamed live on the T-Bird Sports Network.
