Duke pitcher Charlie Beilenson named ACC Pitcher of the Week.

Duke pitcher Charlie Beilenson was named the ACC Pitcher of the Week on Monday.

The Blue Devils reliever went 2-0 and added a save in three appearances, and he did not allow any earned runs across 6.2 innings on the mound. Beilenson kept batters guessing, racking up 10 strikeouts in his three outings.

Against Virginia Tech on Friday, he pitched a season-high four innings, allowed just one hit, and struck out five Hokies. He did not allow a hit in his other two outings this past week, including a perfect inning during Sundayโ€™s deciding game.

The Blue Devils won all three games he pitched in, once against Gardner-Webb and twice against Virginia Tech as they won the series.

Dukeโ€™s three wins last week moved the Blue Devils to 29-11 for the year and 13-8 in ACC play. D1Baseball had the team sixth in their latest ranking.

Notre Dame pitcher Temple had himself a weekend, gets recognized

What a weekend

The Irish baseball team won another weekend series. Copy, paste, print. Itโ€™s been a reoccurring theme since Link Jarrett took over the program, and early this year itโ€™s been three series played, and three series victories.

Two of those have been sweeps, this weekend being another one. The Sunday starter, Austin Temple made Minnesota miserable, taking a no-hitter into the seventh inning while striking out a career-high 9 Gophers. For his efforts he was named the MVP of the Cambria College Classic, but the recognition didnโ€™t stop there for Temple.

On Monday, Temple was named the ACC pitcher of the week for his gem this past Sunday.

The Irish ultimately won the game, 3-1, taking all three games against the Big Ten foes in the CCC.

With their three win, the Irish improved to 8-1 on the year and once again are looking like a team that has College World Series aspirations.
