LC Pitcher D.W. Moore Garners Weekly Honors
SALEM, VA- Following a brilliant opening day outing, junior hurler D.W. Moore (Lynchburg, VA/Heritage) has been named the first Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) pitcher of the week for the 2008 season, as released by the conference office Monday.
The local product right-hander baffled the Division-II Limestone hitters back on Feb. 2, as he went five innings allowing no runs while scattering three hits and striking out five. The recognition marked the second-consecutive year that Moore was named to the slot for the first award of the ODAC baseball campaign.
The Hornets (0-2) have a busy weekend coming up, as they travel to North Carolina Wesleyan College Friday, then stopping at Methodist University Saturday and Sunday for round-robin doubleheaders with Frostburg State University and the host Monarchs.
