ST. LOUIS, Mo. – Patrick Schnieders continued the University of Evansville's run of Missouri Valley Conference Players of the Week on Monday as he was the third Purple Ace to earn a weekly honor, joining Morgan Florey and Sara Dickey from the softball and women's basketball teams.
Schnieders, a senior out of Westphalia, Mo., was named the league's Pitcher of the Week after an incredible start to his final campaign with the Aces. The right-hander was unhittable through five innings for UE, striking out a career-best 11 of the 19 batters he faced. He struck out the side in three of his five frames.
