Athlete of the Week

The sophomore pitched six plus scoreless innings during the team's first win over Idaho State University on Sunday.

What was your mindset coming in from the bullpen so early in the game?

I try to not overthink things, but focus on each pitch, stay positive and relaxed. 

How important was it to get the first win out of the way?

It was extremely important. I think that before we were all so anxious and tense about winning, we were letting those feelings get in the way of our full potential individually and as a team. 

Do you have any superstitions?

Every game I wear my visor no matter what time of day it is, my shoelaces have to be tied a certain way and I have to fix my mound after each pitch.
