Chattanooga sophomore pitcher Alyssa Lavdis was named the Southern Conference Pitcher of the Week, the league office announced Monday.
Lavdis had two appearances with one start last week. The Concord, Ohio, native pitched three innings in relief against Harvard on Friday, earning a win after giving up just one hit and striking out three batters in the Mocs' 7-3 victory. The sophomore pitched a complete game with a career-best 15 strikeouts, which is one shy of the school record, in Chattanooga's 5-0 shutout over Detroit. For the week, Lavdis pitched 10 innings with five hits, four walks and 18 strikeouts and a 0.00 ERA.
