For the second time in three weeks, Missouri junior Aaron Crow has been named the Big 12 Conference Pitcher of the Week, as announced by the conference office on Monday. Crow recorded his third complete game shutout of the season while extending his scoreless innings streak to 42.2 in Mizzou's win over Oklahoma State last Friday. He struck out seven against OSU and did not walk a batter to improve to 7-0 on the year.
Crow has not allowed a run in Big 12 play this year and has only given up four runs in 52.0 innings pitched this season. His last run allowed came in his second start of the year, against California on Feb. 29. He has recorded a victory in each of his seven starts this season.
For the season, Crow leads the Big 12 in wins (seven), ERA (0.69), strikeouts (67) and shutouts (three).
On March 24, Crow earned Big 12 Pitcher of the Week honors after recording a three-hit shutout over Baylor. He is the first pitcher to earn multiple Pitcher of the Year awards this season.
