Garner named Player of the Week
Published 1:51pm Tuesday, May 1, 2012PARK RIDGE, Ill. — Former Niles standout David Garner has earned Big Ten Pitcher of the Week honors.
The Michigan State hurler tossed a complete game shutout against No. 13-ranked Purdue Sunday.
It was Garner’s first career complete game shutout. He struck out seven, allowed just five hits and did not walk a batter.
The Boilermakers entered the weekend with the third best batting average in the country and it was the first time this season that Purdue had been shut out.
Fantastic! Any relation to Louie Garner or “Duke” Garner or any of the other Garners?
