Ehnes and Pavey Named to All-Region Team (May
7, 2004)
BILLINGS, MT – Montana State-Billings juniors
Joey Ehnes and Layne Pavey received two more honors today when
they were named to the National Fastpitch Coaches Association
All-West Region second team. Both earned Pacific West Conference
all-conference honors earlier in the week when Ehnes was named to
the first team and Pavey to the second team. The Yellowjackets
finished 27-28 overall in just their fourth year, winning six
straight and 13 of their final 16 to close the season.
Ehnes, a junior pitcher/second baseman from
Great Falls, Mont., set school single season records with 21
victories and 261 strikeouts as a pitcher. She also had a solid
year at the plate and was named to the NFCA All-Region team as a
utility player. Ehnes ranked second in the PacWest for both wins
and strikeouts, fourth for ERA (1.90), second for opposing batting
average (.211) and second for innings pitched (232). Her 21-16
record ranked 27th in the nation for victories in the
most recent NCAA statistical rankings. She was named the
Yellowjackets’ Most Valuable Defensive Player and also led MSUB
offensively with 30 RBI and 20 runs scored.
Pavey, a junior catcher from Spokane, Wash.,
was the PacWest home run champion with eight homers. One of the
region’s most dangerous hitters, she batted .307 with 28 RBI and
24 runs scored. Pavey was named the Yellowjackets’ co-Most
Valuable Offensive Player after finishing ranked fourth in the
PacWest for RBI and eighth for runs scored. She also ranked first
in the league for total bases (83) and sixth for slugging
percentage (.509). Of the five catchers earning all-region
honors, three were from the PacWest Conference.
