PITCHER OF THE WEEK
North Alabama pitcher Hillary Carpenter
(Fr., 5-6, Hatton, Ala.)

For the second time this season, Carpenter wins the Pitcher of the Week award as she earned the win in each game of a sweep at West Alabama. The freshman is quickly asserting herself as one of the top pitchers in the league, allowing just one run in her three appearances. Carpenter entered the first game of the series in relief with the go-ahead runner on base. She proceeded to throw 3 1/3 innings of hitless relief to earn the win. She followed that with a two-hit shutout – her fifth of the season – in the nightcap. She then tossed her seventh complete game in winning the series finale, holding UWA to a .138 batting average over the weekend. This season, Carpenter is 7-2 with a league-leading 1.16 ERA in 72 1/3 innings.
