LAS VEGAS (FOX5) — UNLV softball is racking up postseason honors, including the program’s first Mountain West pitcher of the year in nearly two decades.
Freshman Lauren Fettic was named Mountain West pitcher of the year, the first Rebel to win the award since 2007 and the first under head coach Kristie Fox.
Fettic led UNLV in league play with a 2.91 ERA, more than 86 innings pitched, 51 strikeouts, five complete games and a 9-3 record. All numbers rank near the top of the conference.
