Penrod Tied For Nation's Lead In Saves
CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Mid-American Conference announced the MAC Player and Pitcher of the Week Monday afternoon (March 31). Of those named, Connar Penrod earned the Pitcher of the Week honor. This marks the first honor of Penrod's BGSU career while being the second for the Falcons after Brady Birchmeier was named MAC Co-Player of the Week on March 17.
Penrod recorded a save in each game of BGSU's three-game weekend sweep over Central Michigan. Penrod began the weekend by logging the save in both games of Friday's doubleheader before adding another on Sunday, tossing 3.1 scoreless innings on his way to his three saves. Penrod now has eight saves this season, already tied for the program record for saves in a single season as well as being tied for first in the nation in the stat. As a team, BGSU now has 12 saves this year, which also ties the program record for a season. Penrod's effort helped the Falcons register the first sweep at Central Michigan in program history.
UP NEXT
The Falcons will stay on the road to begin the month of April, scheduled for a midweek contest at Michigan State on Wednesday (April 2) at 6:05 p.m. From there, BGSU will return home to host the Miami RedHawks in a three-game weekend series (April 4-6).
