ST. LOUIS -- Indiana State's Collin Liberatore has been named the Missouri Valley Conference Pitcher of the Week for the second-straight week, the league office announced Monday afternoon. It marks the fourth weekly award for the Sycamores this season and the second for Liberatore.
Liberatore (9-0) put together another phenomenal performance on the mound against Illinois State to even the series in Normal Saturday. Liberatore went for at least seven innings for the eighth time this season as he cruised to his MVC leading ninth victory. The right-hander sat down the Redbirds in order in four different innings and retired seven batters in-a-row on two separate occasions.
