Senior pitcher RJ Kuruts of the St. John Fisher College baseball team was named to the D3baseball.com Team of the Week and earned National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Honorable Mention Pitcher of the Week honors following his historic performance against Clarkson University last Tuesday.
Kuruts, who was tabbed as the Empire 8 Pitcher of the Week on Monday, tossed 6.0 innings and did not allow a hit as the Cardinals threw a combined no-hitter to mark the fifth no-no in program history and the first since 2016.
The Forest City, Pa. native tallied a career-high 13 strikeouts in the win and retired 19 of 20 batters to earn his first win of the season.
