WESTERVILLE — Marietta College senior Aiyana Hancock was named the Ohio Athletic Conference Softball Pitcher of the Week Monday afternoon by the league office.

She followed that with a masterful one-hit complete game shutout of Heidelberg University on Friday, collecting another five strikeouts for the afternoon. For the week, Hancock was 2-0 with a 0.55 earned run average and had a .182 opposing batting average against her. Marietta battles OAC foe Muskingum on the road on Wednesday for a doubleheader with first pitch scheduled for 1 p.m. The Pioneers will return home the following day for a doubleheader with Ohio Wesleyan with a 3 p.m. start time.
