COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (May 5, 2025) – Washington State pitcher Nick Lewis was named the Mountain West Conference Pitcher and Freshman of the Week, the conference office announced Monday.
Lewis picked up both awards after recording a career-high eight strikeouts while allowing just two earned runs and no walks in seven innings to earn the win in WSU's series-clinching victory Sunday over Air Force. The redshirt-freshman lefthander opened the game with four scoreless frames before the Falcons got on the scoreboard with a two-run homer in the fifth after WSU had built a 9-0 lead.
