After tossing eight shutout innings in FIU's 8-4 win over Western Kentucky on Sunday, Panthers freshman left-hander Logan Allen was named Conference USA Pitcher of the Week.
Allen, who matched a career-high in innings pitched, limited the Hilltoppers to four hits. The left-hander allowed no runs, one walk and struck out seven to record his fifth win of the season. Allen retired the last 11 batters he faced.
The win Sunday clinched a berth for FIU in the Conference USA Tournament beginning May 23 in Biloxi, Mississippi.
Allen is now 5-5 with a 4.
