Ziggie Vanderwall Gulf South Conference West Division Pitcher of the Week


Southern Arkansas starting pitcher Ziggie Vanderwall (JR, 6-1, 185, Rockford, IL) is the Gulf South Conference West Division Pitcher of the Week for the week ending March 6th.

Vanderwall posts SAU’s third pitching honoree in as many weeks. The senior celebrated his first career start in grand fashion becoming just the 10th player in GSC history to record 17 strikeouts in a game. SAU clipped LSU-Shreveport, 4-3, thanks to his command on the mound. The Rockford, IL native posted the win, going 7 1/3 innings and allowing just three hits and three earned runs. He set the school record for strikeouts in a game and became the first GSC pitcher to accomplish the feat since 2007.
