After helping lead the Redhawks to their first regular season conference title in program history this weekend, Seattle University baseball’s Nick Meservey (Scottsdale, Ariz.) has been named Western Athletic Conference Pitcher of the Week.

The sophomore left-hander struck out a career high-tying nine batters in eight scoreless innings on Friday, an eventual 3-0 win for the Redhawks to stay in contention for the title. He allowed just two hits and walked one batter in the victory, finishing the regular season with a 7-2 record. His 1.89 season ERA is good for 22nd nationally while only 29 pitchers in the nation allow fewer hits per nine innings than Meservey.

Seattle U enters this week’s WAC Tournament as the No. 1 seed for the second straight season after winning their first regular season title. With a first day bye, the Redhawks start tournament play on Thursday at 7 p.m. in Mesa, Ariz. vs. the lowest remaining seed after day one.
