MORAVIAN'S CHRISTOPHER MORRISON NAMED ECAC
DIVISION III SOUTHERN BASEBALL PITCHER OF THE WEEK
CAPE
COD, MA --- Freshman pitcher Christopher Morrison (Middlesex,
NJ/Immaculata HS) of the Moravian College baseball team
has been named the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference Division
III Southern Baseball Pitcher of the Week for his performance last
week.
Morrison helped Moravian to a 3-0 start to the
2007 Commonwealth Conference season last week. The Greyhounds had
won four straight for the first time since the 2002 season last
week and are 6-7 under first-year head coach Paul Engelhardt,
surpassing the win total from the entire 2006 season in just 11
games.
Morrison, making just his third collegiate start,
tossed his second complete game of the season in a 3-1 victory over
Susquehanna University. Morrison, who was also
named the Commonwealth Conference Pitcher of the Week, allowed just
three hits and a walk while striking out seven batters in the game.
He also had three assists and the final putout of the contest. Morrison
is 2-0 on the season with a shutout.
Moravian is scheduled to return to action on Friday, March 29th
in a Commonwealth Conference game at Juniata College beginning at
3:00 p.m. in Huntingdon.
