TROY, Ala. – Sophomore righty Levi Thomas has been tabbed as the Community Coffee Sun Belt Pitcher of the Week, the league office announced Tuesday.
Thomas, a native of Cullman, Ala., takes the award after carrying a no-hitter into the eighth inning of his Friday night start against North Alabama. He fanned a career-high 11 batters through 7.1 innings before a UNA pinch hitter spoiled the party. Overall, he allowed just four baserunners in the outing – the lone hit, two walks and an error – en route to his third career combined shutout.
