TRENT RAPE OF TRINITY UNIVERSITY, a senior right handed pitcher from Waller, Texas, has been selected the SCAC Baseball Pitcher-of-the-Week for games played through Sunday, April 12th.

Rape pitched Trinity to a series sweep of the University of Dallas on Sunday afternoon, earning the victory in his only appearance.

Rape threw seven shutout innings in the 5-0 Tiger victory, allowing just six hits, and striking out eight batters. He never allowed a runner to reach third base during his time on the mound, and just one of the six hits went for extra bases.

For the season, Rape is 3-2 with a 2.45 ERA - a mark that is second among all Trinity pitchers. Rape has struck out 48 batters in 44.0 innings pitched, giving up 12 earned runs and walking 15 batters.
