In our nightcap, we were treated to what the kids are calling a “pitcher’s duel.”
From Creighton we had the two seam aficionado Rollie Lacy, a 6’4 righty and graduated junior from Minnetrista, Minnesota.
For the Pirates of Seton Hall we had no-hitter aficionado Zach Prendergast, a 6’2 righty from Horsham, Pennsylvania.
Both received a slew of accolades for their performances this season. The two ended up on the first-team All-BIG EAST for being really quite good at what they do. Though they’re worlds apart in their approach, their pace, and their stuff, it was truly a marvel to see two of the best hurlers the conference has to offer in a championship setting.
