Lewis-Clark State College’s Blaine Hardy has been named the NAIA’s Region I Pitcher of the Week for his performance last week against Concordia. 

Hardy, a 6-foot-2 junior from Shoreline, Wash., helped the Warriors to a 5-4 10-inning win over Concordia last Tuesday. He pitched the final 7.1 innings and allowed only three hits. He didn’t give up a run and struck out 11 to earn the win. 

Hardy is 5-1 on the season with a 2.08 earned run average. He has appeared in nine games, four of which he started. He’s thrown 39 innings, allowed 36 hits, nine earned runs and five walks, with 32 strikeouts. 

The Warriors, 28-2 overall, will put their 22-game win streak on the line Friday when they trek to St. George, Utah to face Dixie State in a three-game series. Game times are 5 p.m. on Friday, 4 p.m. on Saturday and 11 a.m. on Sunday.
