Nishikawa Works 5.2 Scoreless Innings, Named Shamrock Office Solutions Student-Athlete of the Week

MORAGA, Calif. — The Saint Mary's softball team put together one of its best pitching weekends of the season, putting up a staff ERA of 2.26 and limiting the 14th-ranked Washington Huskies and 24th-ranked Stanford Cardinal to a combined team batting average of .204. Junior Mia Nishikawa had a major hand in that effort, and, as such, has been named the Shamrock Office Solutions Student-Athlete of the Week for the first time in her career.

Hailing from Fresno, Nishikawa pitched in both of the Gaels matchups against Stanford as part of the Stanford Round Robin. Through 5.2 innings worked in her two outings, Nishikawa did not allow a run, and surrendered just three hits. In her second outing of the week, a Gaels' 5-1 victory over the Cardinal, Nishikawa earned the start, and faced the minimum through three full innings after rolling a pair of ground ball double plays.

OTHER NOMINEES: Hannah Couch/Clarissa Klein (BVB), John Damozonio (BSB), Finn Dyer (MTEN), Courtney Fitzgibbon (WTRK), Avery Lazarski (GOLF), Oisine Spillane (MTRK), Elif Tuana Gunal/Madison Weekley (WTEN)
