WICHITA, Kan. - Wichita State freshman Alex Aguilar was named the American Athletic Conference Pitcher of the Week by the league office Monday afternoon.

Aguilar appeared in two games, making one start and didn't allow an earned run in 9.0 innings. Opponents recorded just three hits against her and struck out seven times. She threw 3.0 innings of hitless, shutout relief against Northern Colorado on March 17 to go with five strikeouts. In the start against the Bears on Sunday, Aguilar threw a complete game and surrendered just one unearned run on three hits.

Additionally, Sydney McKinney picked up her second American Athletic Conference Weekly Honor Roll selection. The senior All-American slashed .526/.526/.684 in five games with a home run, five runs and five RBI. She had two three-hit games, including a 3-for-4 night with a home run and three RBI vs. No. 9 Arkansas. 

Wichita State hosts Kansas tomorrow night at Wilkins Stadium before opening conference play this weekend in Orlando against UCF.
