ATLANTA, GA- The Millsaps Majors' pitchers Nathan Harrell and James Perkins have been honored by the Southern Athletic Association as pitchers of the week for their efforts this past week.
Harrell and Perkins share the honor for combining on the first no-hitter in SAA history. The two pitchers combined to allow one unearned run while walking two and hitting two batters.
Harrell's line included four innings pitched with an unearned run, a walk and a strikeout. Perkins went the final five while walking one and striking out two.
A tip of the cap also goes to William Chenoweth, whose diving catch to rob a base hit in the eighth preserved the historic event.
The Majors will host Huntingdon this evening in a non-conference tilt with first pitch at 4pm.
