PEORIA, Ill. -- Senior pitcher Alex Gray (Marysville, Wash./Marysville Pilchuck) has been named the Bradley COUNTRY Financial Scholar-Athlete of the Week after helping Bradley Baseball lock up a series win against Indiana State last weekend.

Gray entered Sunday's series finale against the Sycamores to start the fourth with the Braves trailing, 5-3 and went on to finish out the game; allowing one unearned run on four hits with one walk and a career-best seven strikeouts in a career-high six innings. Although he has not started a game this season, Gray has averaged nearly 4.
