Scott Named SoCon Pitcher of the Week


Southern Conference announces softball weekly honors

GREENSBORO, N.C. – UNC Greensboro (UNCG) softball junior Morgan Scott was named Southern Conference (SoCon) Pitcher of the Week, announced by the Conference on Monday.

This is the fifth-straight recognition for the Spartans this season. Jordan Gontram, Blayke Batten, and Delaney Cumbie were previously named Players of the Week. Maycin Brown was also selected as Player of the Month for February.

Scott appeared and started in two of the five games for the Spartans this week. In both games, she earned wins to bring her total to nine victories. UNCG won 6-2 over Michigan State on Thursday and 3-1 over Saint Francis (Pa.) on Friday.
 
Scott tossed 14.0 innings this week giving up 13 hits. She averaged 1.00 earned runs striking out 15. In the win over the Red Flash, Scott struck out 10 batters. This was the second time this season that Scott struck out double-digit batters and 12th time in her career.
 
She currently leads the SoCon in six categories: innings pitched (90.2), batters struck out (87), batters struck out looking (28), wins (9), appearances (15), and games started (12). Scott is also sixth in opposing batting average (.242) and eighth in earned run average (3.32).
 
The Spartans are now 15-8 overall.

From Scott
"It's an honor to receive this award. My team has been very supportive. The defense has been making awesome plays and the offense has been taking hacks. I'm super proud to be a part of this team and can't wait for the rest of our season!"

Up Next
