Performers of the weekBy KEITH NIEBUHR © St. Petersburg Times, published April 17, 2001 Tabitha Schrufer, Citrus softballDuring the past two seasons, the Citrus senior has been the master of the one-hitter. Last week, she did one better. In a 4-0 win over Leesburg, Schrufer (14-4) struck out five and threw the first no-hitter of her career. "She's come close at least on two dozen occasions," Citrus coach Scott Waters said. "Since she's been here, she's had at least 12 one-hitters and just as many two-hitters." Amber Presnick and Jessica Macdonald made diving catches to help preserve the no-hitter. Honorable mentionSOFTBALL: Melissa Coburn of Crystal River went 2-for-3 in a loss to River Ridge. Earlier in the week, she had three hits in a win over South Sumter. Courtenay Ryals of Crystal River had two triples in a 3-1 win over Pinellas Park. Jessica Wilroy of Crystal River drove in the game-winning run with a single in a 2-1 win over Lecanto. BASEBALL: Will Bleakley of Crystal River allowed four hits and three runs in a 13-3 win over 14-4 Marietta (Ga.). Sam McLain of Citrus went 6-for-10 last week and 5-for-6 during a two-game stretch. His two-run single helped the Hurricanes get past Wesley Chapel 2-1. Jimmy Metz of Lecanto struck out 11 and allowed one earned run in a 7-1 loss to Zephyrhills. In a win over Lake Weir, Metz went 2-for-3 with a home run. Flint Whitelaw tossed a two-hitter on 68 pitches to lead the Hurricanes past Wesley Chapel. He allowed one earned run in improving to 3-1.
