Freshman Lovina Capria (Deltona, Fla.) picked up America East Pitcher of the Week honors for the second week in a row, while also earning her first River Hawk of the Week nod.
Â
Capria, who boasted a 0.54 ERA in the circle last week, recorded both of the River Hawks wins with a 3-1 decision in eight innings at Sacred Heart and a 9-0 victory at Quinnipiac in five. The shutout against the Bobcats marked her second one-hitter of the season, while she matched her season high with eight strikeouts against Sacred Heart. Â

The "River Hawk of the Week" is chosen in voting by the UMass Lowell Athletic Communications staff. It honors the top athlete, male or female, based on performance during the previous week of competition.
