SPARTANBURG, S.C. – ETSU baseball player Micah Kaczor has been named the General Shale Southern Conference Student-Athlete of the Week for all competition from May 8-14. This selection was made by the league office.
Kaczor threw a complete game shutout for the first time in his career in a series-opening win over The Citadel this past Friday. In nine innings, he allowed just three hits and only five base runners, one walk and striking out eight in the Bucs 4-0 win.

The senior from Washington, D.C. was also named SoCon Pitcher of the Week as well as was named the National Pitcher of the Week by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association on Tuesday. He currently leads all starting pitchers in the SoCon with a 1.84 ERA and is second in innings pitched at 88.0.
