He threw 99 pitches in nine innings, struck out five and was only two batters away from a perfect game as he walked one and hit a batter.

1B/RHP Micah Owings, Tulane: Owings had a remarkable week at the plate and on the mound for Tulane over four games. He belted four home runs with 7 RBI while posting a victory with six shutout innings in a 24-2 win over Marist. He registered a season-high eight strikeouts over six innings.

LHP Paul Coleman, Pepperdine: Coleman struck out a school-record 16 batters while pitching a complete game in leading Pepperdine to a 9-0 win over New Orleans. The complete game was the first of Coleman's career as he allowed just two hits and one walk in improving to 3-0 on the season.
