paced the Millsaps offense in a 2-1 week on the
diamond - which included a victory over No. 5 Emory University - hitting .444 from the plate (4-for-9) with nine total
bases, three walks, two runs scored, three RBIs, two doubles and a solo home
run. In a 10-0 win over Mississippi College on Thursday, Owen went
2-for-4 from the plate with three RBIs, his third double of the

AARON WILLIAMS OF MILLSAPS COLLEGE, a first-year right-hander from
Covington, La., has been selected the SCAC
Baseball Pitcher-of-the-Week for games played from Monday,
February 11 through Sunday, February 17.
Williams picked up his second win in as many outings, tossing 7.0 solid innings and
striking out seven while surrendering two hits and one run, in a 5-1 upset win
at No. 5 Emory University on Saturday. Williams, a product of Mandeville High
School, is quickly establishing himself as one of the premier pitchers in a
tough starting rotation, combining for a 2-0 record and a 0.75 ERA in his first
two collegiate starts. He has struck out 13 batters against just three walks in
12.0 innings of work, while allowing only three hits and one run.
