Saint Louis sophomore Brianna Lore (Sullivan, Mo./Sullivan) has been named the Atlantic 10 Conference softball Pitcher of the Week for March 17-23.

It is Lore’s second A-10 weekly honor this season following her selection as Player of the Week March 3. She has three conference weekly awards in her career, adding this year’s plaudits to a Rookie of the Week nod in 2013.

Lore posted a 3-0 record and a 1.47 ERA last week. She began the week by going the distance in a 4-3, nine-inning win over Kansas March 19, a game in which she worked out of numerous jams to keep the Jayhawks off the scoreboard in all but one inning. Lore also went 2-for-4 at the plate.

Lore was the winning pitcher in both games of a 2-1, 6-4 doubleheader sweep of Massachusetts in the A-10 openers March 22. She tossed a five-hitter, walked only one and retired 10 consecutive UMass hitters in the opener. In the nightcap, the left-hander worked the final three innings and allowed just one hit and one walk.

For the season, Lore owns a 10-7 record, a 3.03 ERA and one save. She averages just 2.24 walks per seven innings and has a 2-to-1 strikeouts-to-walks ratio.

Saint Louis players have been recognized five times and have earned all three A-10 weekly awards this season.Mackenzie Peter and Lindsay Friedman join Lore as recipients of Player of the Week accolades, while Alex Nickel has collected Rookie of the Week laurels.

The Billikens (14-11) host Southern Illinois Wednesday, March 26. The starting time for the doubleheader at the Billiken Sports Center has been pushed up to 2 p.m.
