TOLEDO, Ohio – Junior Sophia Knight was tabbed this week's Mid-American Conference Pitcher of the Week following her performance in Toledo's spring break trip last week.
Knight was spectacular in the circle for the Rockets in California last week. Knight posted a 0.98 ERA, struck out 17 batters, and held opponents to a .218 average in 21.1 innings. She struck out a season-high nine batters to pick up the win over Fairfield on Thursday and pitched 5.0 innings in relief to allow only one run in UT's win over Yale on Friday.
Knight yielded just five hits in 7.
