MEMPHIS, Tenn. – University of Memphis softball pitcher Christian Novak has been named to the American Athletic Conference Weekly Honor Roll for her performance this past week.
Â
Novak finished the week with a 2-1 record and a 0.57 ERA which included a three-hit shutout victory over Tulsa on Saturday afternoon. She finished the week with three complete games and the win over first-place Tulsa was her first shutout of the season. Memphis' victory over the Golden Hurricane snapped a 10-game winning streak.
