IRVING, Texas– After a solid week in the circle, freshman Ava Eldridge was named American Athletic Conference Pitcher of the Week, as was announced by the league office on Monday.
Eldridge was phenomenal, picking up three wins and maintaining a 1.29 ERA over 21.2 innings of work. Two of her three victories came in conference play, as she first tossed eight innings to pick up an extra-innings victory over Tulsa, and she worked a complete-game shutout in a 5-0 win that secured UTSA’s first series victory of the season.
She represents the second Roadrunner to be named Pitcher of the Week this season, after classmate Kaylie Olivarez was selected on Feb. 24 following a pair of stellar performances at the Roadrunner Classic.
