RICHARDSON, Texas –Senior Colton Taylor of the Texas A&M-Kingsville Baseball Team was named the Lone Star Conference Pitcher of the Week as announced in a press release put out by the league on Tuesday afternoon.

The Right-Handed Pitcher from Amherstburg, Ontario, Canada earns the honor after helping the Javelinas to an undefeated weekend, sweeping the UAFS Lions in four games on the road.

Shutting down the UAFS offense, Taylor only allowed 1 hit in a complete double header game, meaning 7 full innings pitched. He also had 5 strikeouts on the day matching his season high as well as not allowing a single walk in the game. This being the longest outing for the right-handed pitcher of the season he looks to come out once again and make an impact possibly gathering more awards as the season progresses.

The Javelinas are back at Nolan Ryan Field this weekend hosting the Oklahoma Christian Eagles Friday, March 22^nd – Sunday March 24^th Friday's first pitch slated for 6 PM.
