Softball Player of the Week She is the all-time leader in doubles and RBIs for the Lynx COURTESY OF RHODES COLLEGE Henry slugging at Rhodes Chris Van Tuyl Memphis Commercial Appeal USA TODAY NETWORK - TENNESSEE Rhodes College’s Kendall Henry didn’t just string together a bunch of singles on her way to recently being named the Southern Athletic Association Player of the Week The senior catcher was determined to tear the cover off the softball during every plate appearance And for her efforts, Henry was also able to log another entry in the Lynx record books Already the program’s all-time leader in doubles, Henry drove in eight runs to put her at 131 career RBIs “That’s always been a goal of mine,” she said “I get to forever be among some of the best players that have come through Rhodes College I’m excited.” During a three-game series against Berry College, Henry went 7-for-11 (.636) with a pair of home runs The Roseville, Calif., native can take additional pride that she’s now No alltime in the SAA in the RBI department, but she’s also quick to praise her teammates too “People have to be getting on base People have to be putting me in that position,” she said “Hitting is definitely contagious, so I just build off of my teammates’ confidence.” Rhodes entered the weekend with a 23-13 record and one final conference series against visiting Hendrix on its regular-season schedule In Wednesday’s split with Williams Baptist, Henry swatted her team-leading ninth home run of the year She’s got three more homers than fellow senior Jill Healy, who was selected as the Louisville Slugger/National Fastpitch Coaches Association DIII National Player of the Week on April 10 “Last year, we came up a little bit short in the conference championship, and that kind of left a bad taste in all of our mouths,” Henry said “This team is so much more hungry, and willing to whatever it takes to get to that next level.” Henry has been a consistent force with her team-high 41 RBIs, registering multiples in 13 games this season “I’ve been playing softball since I was years old,” she said, “so I’m definitely used to it You have to learn to calm yourself down, and the softball field is definitely where I feel comfortable — and I feel comfortable in the box.” And what’s better is that Henry, a business major, has felt at home since arriving in Memphis “(Rhodes) has given me the opportunity to get a great education, while playing the sport I love,” she said “And that’s something very important to me I knew I wasn’t going to go pro in softball, but I wanted to be prepared for later in life I knew as soon as I got on campus that this is where I needed to be.” Gridiron dinner to honor locals The Memphis Chapter of the National Football Foundation is set to hold its 47th annual Scholar Athlete Dinner Monday at Rhodes, and the organization will be shining the spotlight on 11 high school seniors and a pair of local college athletes The list of honorees includes

Germantown’s Chris Smith receiv- Rules Jason Dobbs, Moore County “The transfer rule I think there is too much shopping of kids at the high school level these days Parents aren’t happy with where they are at and they move across town And because they have a change of residence, they are eligible to play “I think you aren’t teaching kids the right thing “ You are teaching them not to work for what you want, just go where the situation may be better or easier.” “With all of the teams using Hudl sideline (video), I’d like to see replay or ability to challenge (a play) Whether it’s the home team that provides the referee an iPad for review, I think that could be a cool thing “Obviously, it’s trickling its way down from the pros “Having some type of system to have a challenge or replay for our officials would set us apart.” Chuck Gentry, Lebanon “I would move the dead period to the first two weeks when school is out instead of it breaking up the summer for football.” Awards & accomplishments University of Memphis senior Davon DeMoss was chosen as the American Athletic Conference Male Track Athlete of the Week At the Crimson Tide Invitational in Tuscaloosa, DeMoss won the 100 meters (10.25) and ran a leg on the Tigers’ 400-meter relay team that captured first place with a time of 39.69 … Former Arlington High standout Dalton Fowler, now with Northwest Mississippi

concludes on Tuesday Sunday Sports Brunch is a weekly look at movers, shakers and newsmakers on the Memphis sports scene, from youth level to the pros If you have an item of interest, please contact Chris Van Tuyl at christopher.vantuyl@commercialappeal.com look at zoning Are the kids really playing where they are supposed to be playing? And your open enrollment schools Everyone wants to complain about the private school, but look at your open enrollment, that’s where it’s an advantage.” Continued from Page 1B Justin Geisinger, Pope John Paul II ing The Rex Award, named in honor of former Memphis football coach Rex Dockery, and Millington assistant Mark Fisher accepting the Mario Reed Courage Award Jonathan Quinn, Davidson Academy Pearl-Cohn head coach Tony Brunetti gives instruction to his players during the game against Giles County at Pearl-Cohn High School in Nashville on Aug 31, 2018 GEORGE WALKER IV/THE TENNESSEAN Derek Hunt, Maryville “They added a rule where you can work with three kids a day in the offseason I think it’s more of a baseball or basketball rule Basketball guys, you are only playing five at a time “I think that hurts football if you work with three kids a day and you have over 100 kids in your program if you are a big school “I think it would be better if football could work with seven guys “If you are going to that rule at all you have to change it because of the numbers.” Thomas McDaniel, Christian Brothers “Holding In high school it’s a spot foul because in the new spread offenses that are rampant in high school football now, if a tackle kicks back and a defensive end goes wide and he holds them eight yards back, it’s now an 18-yard penalty “That makes it the most egregious penalty in high school football besides ejection You can be penalized more than a personal foul You get situations where it’s first-and-28 It should be a 10yard penalty from the line of scrimmage foul just like it is everywhere else.” Rodney Saulsberry, Whitehaven “The transfer eligibility parameters with different locations, whether it be private school or public school or open zone or city systems I think there are too many variables in eligibility right now “We have the (30-mile) circle around us (that is our zone) I just find it hard to believe that a kid living in Mississippi, and he’s never played in a TSSAA sport that he can’t transfer to Christian Brothers and be eligible Yet kids move all over the city I think some systems have to “The biggest thing would be able to appeal a judgment rule like targeting That has been one that has hurt some teams A kid gets ejected, but you can’t overrule it even though it’s visibly wrong I’ve had two of those at crucial moments in the playoffs “They’ve told me it was a bad call, but we couldn’t anything about it.” Reach Tom Kreager at 615-259-8089 or tkreager@tennessean.com and on Twitter @Kreager
