WASHINGTON, Pa. – Washington & Jefferson College junior pitcher Eddie Nogay (Weirton, W.Va./Madonna) recently added to his postseason hardware after being selected as the ECAC Division III South Baseball Pitcher of the Year.
Nogay, A D3baseball.com and American Baseball Coaches Association/Rawlings All-American, also earned a spot on the ECAC South First Team after tying for second in NCAA Division III this season with 12 victories. Nogay produced a 12-1 record and a 3.01 earned-run average in 15 appearances (12 starts). He struck out 70 batters (55th in NCAA DIII) during a school-record 86 2/3 innings and fired three shutouts.
The 2013 D3baseball.com Mideast and Presidents’ Athletic Conference Pitcher of the Year, owns a 22-1 career record and a 2.61 ERA.
