BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Lehigh junior Gabriella Nori has been named Patriot League Pitcher of the Week, it was announced Tuesday. Nori was outstanding in earning victories in both ends of Lehigh's doubleheader sweep of Holy Cross on Friday.
This is the second Pitcher of the Week award this season for Nori, who was also honored following Lehigh's season-opening doubleheader sweep at Sacred Heart.
Nori allowed just one run on six hits over 11 innings of work in Friday's doubleheader at Holy Cross. She retired all 12 batters she faced over the first four innings of game one, departing with a 4-0 lead in a game in which Nori and freshman Katelyn Young combined on a two-hitter in a 6-0 Lehigh victory. Nori went the distance in game two, allowing just the one run on six hits in Lehigh's 3-1 win. She struck out seven batters in each game, with the seven strikeouts establishing single-game highs for the Mountain Hawks in 2021.
For the season, Nori is now 3-4 with a 2.43 ERA. Nori has struck out 40 in 46 innings of work.
The Mountain Hawks (6-10, 4-4 Patriot League) will head to Colgate for a four-game Patriot League series this weekend that features doubleheaders on both Saturday and Sunday beginning at noon both days.
