SIOUX FALLS — South Dakota State right-hander Grace Glanzer was honored Monday as Summit League Pitcher of the Week for her efforts in a team record-setting performance over the weekend.
Â
A returning freshman from Sioux Falls, Glanzer won her seventh consecutive decision and improved to 12-2 overall in the Jackrabbits' 7-1, series-opening win April 17 at North Dakota. Glanzer carried a shutout into the sixth inning and went the distance, allowing one run on three hits while not walking a batter.
Â
The victory was SDSU's 15th in a row, breaking the previous program record of 14 set in 1996. The Jackrabbits, 29-4 overall and 14-0 in league play, swept the doubleheader and will carry a 16-game winning streak into this weekend's four-game home series against South Dakota.
Â
Glanzer earned the Summit League Pitcher of the Week award for the second time this season and fourth time in her career. Her first award in 2021 came after pitching a no-hitter March 5 against Oregon State, followed by a win later in the weekend against Colorado State.
Â
Action both Saturday and Sunday against South Dakota will consist of doubleheaders starting at noon at Jackrabbit Softball Stadium.
