Pitcher Doug Smith earns another ‘Pitcher of the Week’ award from OCCAC
Doug Smith added another chapter to his comeback story at Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C®).
Smith earned his second Pitcher of the Week Award of the season from the Ohio Community College Athletic Conference after throwing a gem in an 8-1 win over Edison State Community College.
The right-hander struck out nine in the complete-game victory while scattering four hits over seven innings. He raised his record to 5-2 on the season after missing last year with a shoulder injury.
The sophomore from Galloway is working toward an Associate of Arts degree at the College.
The Challengers improved their record to 21-8-1 during the week and sit atop the conference standings with Sinclair Community College. The Challengers also received votes in the latest NJCAA Division II national rankings.
The team plays its home games at Tri-C’s Western Campus in Parma. For a full team schedule, visit the team's website.
