(Feb. 12, 2018) Axl Parra was named the Heart of America Pitcher of the Week following his stellar performance on the mound Friday.

"Axl truly picked up where he left off last year with this start," said Brady McKillip, head coach. "I couldn't be happier for him as he begins his senior campaign, he has the ability to make it something special."
