Peru State College senior Will Scott’s dominating week earned him accolades as the Heart of America Athletic Conference’s Pitcher of the Week, in honors announced Monday.
Scott was overpowering in his one start, tossing seven scoreless innings and allowing just one hit and one walk, while tying a career high with 11 strikeouts, in an 11-0 Bobcat win over Mayville State.
Scott improved his season record to 3-1, with a 2.52 ERA and a team-leading 27 strikeouts in 25 innings. The 27 strikeouts places Scott fifth among conference pitchers.
