Story Links

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. Virginia senior lefthander Pat McAnaney (Sr., Syracuse, N.Y.) has been named ACC Co-Pitcher of the Week following his standout performance Saturday against Virginia Tech. The honor is his second of the season, and he shares it this week with Clemson’s Ryan Hinson.

McAnaney (3-1) recorded a career-high 13 strikeouts and struck out the side in the ninth inning as he posted his second complete game in the Cavaliers’ 9-2 win over Virginia Tech. He allowed just two earned runs, six hits and two walks and retired 10 of the final 11 batters to wrap up the complete game.

McAnaney leads the ACC in several pitching categories, including ERA (1.44), innings pitched (43.2), strikeouts (53) and complete games (two).

Virginia (23-5) wraps up its 12-game homestand with a two-game midweek series against Towson this week. The Cavaliers and Tigers play at 6 p.m. Wednesday and 5 p.m. Tuesday.
