Iowa baseball star named Big Ten Pitcher of the Week
After winning their Big Ten opening series over Rutgers this past weekend, Iowa baseball (7-7, 2-1 Big Ten) received news on Monday that junior right-handed pitcher Aaron Savary was named Big Ten Pitcher of the Week.
This is Savary's first Big Ten Pitcher of the Week honor of his career and the first for the Hawkeyes this season.
Savary has opened the season on a tear by going 3-0 in his four starts with a 1.66 ERA, where he has allowed just nine hits in 21 2/3 innings of work and ranks 15th in the nation with 3.74 hits allowed per nine innings. He has also struck out 28 batters on the season (11.63 strikeouts per nine innings).
Thus far this season, Savary has been part of two Hawkeye shutouts and has allowed only four earned runs and two extra-base hits in his appearances.
