IRVING, Texas – Wichita State freshman right-handed pitcher Jace Kaminska was named the American Athletic Conference Pitcher of the Week and junior outfielder Hunter Gibson garnered American Weekly Honor Roll accolades for their performances on the diamond during the week of April 5-11, the conference office announced Monday, April 12.

A native of Caney, Kan., Kaminska earned his first-career pitcher of the week award after throwing a complete game in the Shockers' 10-1 victory over Houston Saturday, April 10, at Riverfront Stadium in downtown Wichita.

It was the first complete game for a WSU pitcher since 2019 and the first time a freshman went the distance since 2009.
