PAGE 10 Badenhop named MAC pitcher of week Bowling Green pitcher Burke Badenhop was named the Mid-American Conference West pitcher of the week after pitching a complete game shut- out in a 1-0 win over Buffalo Sunday. The win helped move the Falcons to 5-4 in MAC play. The right-hander struck out a season-high nine hatters in his first ever complete game. His dominance went beyond the strike outs as he allowed just one runner to get past second base. The win moved him to 6-1 WOMEN'S GOLF on the season. As of now, Badenhop leads BG with eight starts, 43 innings pitched, and is tied for the team lead in strike outs (34).
