ARLINGTON, Texas – Nicola Simpson of Seattle U softball has been named the Western Athletic Conference (WAC) Pitcher of the Week, for the game week ending on Saturday, April 6.
The Seattle native was spectacular in the circle to open the series against Utah Tech, allowing just one earned run on three hits to go along with six strikeouts in a complete game win. Simpson held a no-hitter through the first 5.1 innings, working out of some trouble in the first before sending down 13 of the next 14 Trailblazers with nine of them coming in a row. This marks the junior's first career weekly award.
The Redhawks are back in action this evening, heading across Montlake for a matchup with the Washington Huskies tonight at 6 p.m.
