The Odessa College sophomore will be continuing his collegiate career at Wichita State.

Pitcher of the Week

Trevor Lundgrin, Victoria Generals

Lundgrin helped keep the Generals sharp atop the TCL standings, making a pair of stellar relief appearances, including one lengthy emergency stint. On August 8, Lundgrin came on for an injured starter in the fifth and tossed five no-hit innings, preserving a one-hitter for Victoria and picking up the win. He added two more scoreless innings during the week, holding opponents to a .048 average. Lundgrin made his way to the TCL out of Northeastern Junior College in Sterling, Colo., where he is a rising sophomore.
