Baseball: Arrighetti Named Sun Belt Pitcher of the Week

LAFAYETTE – After a dominant performance on the mound against Coastal Carolina last Friday night, Spencer Arrighetti has earned Sun Belt Pitcher of the Week honors, the league office announced on Tuesday morning. 

Arrighetti was impressive in the victory, twirling 7.1 innings of one-run baseball against the Chanticleers in his start. The Katy, Texas, native improved his record to 4-1-1 on the year and was pitching a shutout until he exited with runners on first and second in the top of the eighth inning. 

He fanned a season-high 11 Chanticleers while only allowing three hits.

With his outing added to his resume, Arrighetti lowered his season ERA to 1.06, while opposing hitters are only batting .132 against him.

This is the second time Arrighetti has been named Sun Belt Pitcher of the Week, the first coming after his performance against Louisiana Tech at the beginning of the year.
