2017 Mar 22

Peyton Worsham of Macon was named as a Community Coffee Sun Belt Pitcher of the Week after recording two impressive outings in the circle against Sun Belt-foe South Alabama over the weekend of March 11-12, 2017.

Worsham went 2-0 in two starts against South Alabama, who was receiving top-25 votes in both major collegiate softball polls. In the series opener on Saturday, March 11, Worsham came just one strike away from a no-hitter, giving up her first hit with two outs in the seventh.

She earned the complete-game shutout with five strikeouts and just one walk. Worsham got the start again on Sunday and led the Panthers to a series sweep with another strong performance, going 5.1 innings and striking out four while giving up just three runs.
