Penn State Altoona freshman pitcher Sawyer Kline was selected the Eastern College Athletic Conference's Rookie of the Week for the Division III South Region on Tuesday for his performance last week.
Kline had a great day out of the bullpen for the Lions in a doubleheader sweep of Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference opponent Alfred State College last Friday afternoon.
In game one, Kline threw a perfect inning out of the pen as part of a pitching staff that limited Alfred State to just one run and four hits. In game two, the freshman right-hander recorded his first collegiate victory by pitching 4 2/3 innings in relief and allowing two runs while striking out five batters.
On the week, Kline pitched 5 2/3 innings and gave up seven hits and two runs while issuing no walks. He struck out five batters and posted a 3.18 earned run average.
