Big West Conference Players of the Week Release

IRVINE, Calif. – Sophomore right-hander Connor Seabold was named the Big West Conference Pitcher of the Week, the conference announced Monday.

Seabold had an outstanding start Saturday night against Wichita State and set the tone right from the jump, tossing an immaculate inning in the first as he struck out the side on nine strikes.

He would go on to toss five and 1/3 innings of no-hit baseball before Shockers second baseman Tanner Kirk singled through the left side to break up the no-hit bid. It would be the only hit Seabold allowed in six innings of work as he struck out six.

Seabold currently leads the team with a 1.10 ERA in 16 and 1/3 innings pitched. He's got a 1-1 record on the season and has allowed opponents to hit just .093 against him. He currently boasts a team-best 10:1 (20 Ks; 2 BB) strikeout-to-walk ratio.

Others nominated: Kyle Smith (Cal Poly); Conner O'Neil (CSUN); Cameron Bishop (UC Irvine); Austin Sodders (UC Riverside); Noah Davis (UC Santa Barbara)
