Jared Herzog Named NACC South Division Pitcher of the Week

Freshman starting pitcher Jared Herzog collected another weekly award on Tuesday morning when it was announced that he had been named the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference South Division Baseball Pitcher of the Week. This is the second weekly award Herzog has received this season, after being named to the D3baseball.com Team of the Week earlier in the year. Herzog also becomes the second Regent pitcher (Christian Pearcy) to be named the NACC South Division Pitcher of the Week this season.

Jared Herzog was brilliant on the mound Sunday in his lone start of the week. Herzog was unhittable in the first half of the game, holding the Stars hitless through four innings. He went on to allow just four hits and one run, while striking out eight to pick up the win. The freshman went all seven innings to record the first complete game of his collegiate career.

The RU baseball team will close out the regular season this weekend with four games against Concordia University Chicago. Rockford will travel to CUC on Saturday for a noon doubleheader. The Regents will then host the Cougars on Sunday at noon for two games at Rivets Stadium.
