Luke Heimlich Named Pac-12 Pitcher Of The Week

SAN FRANCISCO – Oregon State senior Luke Heimlich has been named the Pac-12 Conference Pitcher of the Week on Monday, just a few days after striking out a career-high 14 against then-No. 2 Stanford.

The honor is the third of the season, and seventh of Heimlich's career. Only Andrew Checketts (1996-98) has more during a career at Oregon State, at eight.

The left-hander held the Cardinal to three hits, two runs and two walks to go along with the 14 strikeouts. He won his 12^th game of the season, which leads the nation.

Heimlich has 115 strikeouts on the season, which is tied for 10^th in a single year at Oregon State. It's just 16 behind Jonah Nickerson's school-record 131 in 2006. His 12 wins also ties him for fifth-most in a season by an Oregon State pitcher.

Career-wise, Heimlich has 341 strikeouts, extending his Oregon State all-time lead. He has thrown in 346 innings, fourth-most all-time, and his 32 wins ranks second only to Ben Wetzler's (2011-14) 36.
