POPLARVILLE, Miss. — For the fifth time during the 2021-22 campaign, No. 10 Pearl River’s Brinson Anne Rogers (Statesboro, Ga.) has been named Mississippi Association of Community Colleges Conference Pitcher of the Week. The award also marks the fourth consecutive honor that the right-hander has received.

Rogers has dominated her competition all year long and last week was no different. Despite pitching in just one doubleheader against then No. 7 Itawamba, Rogers still managed to tally 10 innings pitched, 19 strikeouts and a 0.70 ERA.

In the first game against the Indians, the Louisiana-Lafayette transfer tossed a complete game, allowing one earned run, four hits and two walks. She struck out 12 batters in the game. It was her second straight double-digit strikeout game and 11th overall.
