Hunter Williams of Mountville, a member of the Lebanon Valley College (LVC) baseball team, was named Middle Atlantic Conference Freedom Pitcher of the Week for the week ending April 6.

Williams pitched eight innings with four strikeouts to lead the Dutchmen to a key 1-0 victory in the series finale with Misericordia on April 5, earning a big series victory and moving the Dutchmen into third place in the conference standings. The sophomore struck out four Cougars and scattered six hits and three walks as LVC recorded its first shutout of the season. Williams received strong defense behind him as the Dutchmen recorded two double plays and held a high-powered Cougar offense without a run for just the second time this season.

Williams, a graduate of Hempfield High School, is pursuing a Bachelor of Science in business administration.
