DURHAM, N.C. – Senior softball pitcher Peyton St. George has been selected Duke's PNC Achiever's Student-Athlete of the Week after a grand performance in this past Friday's 8-4 victory over No. 5 LSU.
This Mechanicsville, Va., native pitched seven complete innings in which she racked up eight strikeouts while only letting up three hits. St. George had 11-straight outs before LSU had its first baserunner with a single in the bottom of the fourth.
Not only was this St. George's first win of the season, but it was also the program's second victory against a ranked opponent.
