Pitcher of the Week: Will Crowe RHP, Freshman, South Carolina
Crowe earned the winning decision in his highly anticipated debut at Carolina Stadium on Sunday, striking out five batters and not allowing a single hit. Crowe’s velocity was very impressive as he was hitting low-90s on the radar gun well into the sixth inning.

Duzenack was in the zone this weekend during his Dallas-Baptist debut, totaling seven doubles and driving in 13-runs.
