Primeaux struck out the side in the top of the ninth in Centenary's 3-2 walk-off win on Friday night in the series opener, getting all three Pirates to go down swinging in a dominant performance.

Other Outstanding Performances in the SCAC:
First-year right-handed pitcher Apollo Cassimatis of Schreiner went seven innings while striking out five and scattering 11 hits in an SCAC win over Austin College last weekend. Junior right-hander Chris Parsons of St. Thomas continued his hot stretch on the mound, earning a win over Dallas, going seven innings, and striking out six while allowing just three hits. Parsons now has 20 strikeouts in his last two outings. Senior right-handed pitcher Logan Fisher of Texas Lutheran picked up a huge win on the bump against No. 15 Trinity last Sunday night, throwing six innings, allowing just one run on four hits, while striking out five. Sophomore right-hander Joseph Chavana of Trinity opened the SCAC weekend series against No. 25 Texas Lutheran with a complete-game victory to propel No. 15 Trinity to a 2-1 record last week. Chavana notched his third complete game in four starts this season, improving his record to 7-1 with a 4.12 ERA. He struck out eight batters and gave up three runs on four hits over the seven-inning effort that was shortened due to the run-rule. After a tough first inning in which he gave up three runs, Chavana settled in for six shutout innings during which he allowed just two hits.
