Matt Campbell

University of Missouri-Rolla lefthander Matt Campbell was selected Monday as the Great Lakes Valley Conference's "Pitcher of the Week” after throwing a two-hit shutout Thursday in the Miners’ 2-0 victory at Drury.

Campbell struck out four in his 105-pitch outing and didn’t allow a hit after the fourth inning, retiring 16 straight batters in one stretch.

The only Panther baserunner after the fourth came on a two-out walk in the seventh, but Campbell got the next hitter to hit into a fielder’s choice to end the game. The shutout was the Miners’ first in a nine-inning contest this season.

Campbell has a record of 3-3 with an earned run average of 2.74 on the season.

The Miners will host Drury Tuesday at noon at the UMR Baseball Field.
