Aycock Garners First Career Big 12 Weekly Honors
March 14, 2023 | Cowgirl Softball
STILLWATER – Oklahoma State softball's Kyra Aycock has been named the Big 12 Pitcher of the Week, the conference announced today.
The lone true freshman of Oklahoma State's pitching staff, Aycock tallied the fifth win of her young career as the Cowgirls' starter in their run-rule victory of then-No. 5/6 Florida State on March 11.
Although the OSU offense only needed five innings to secure the 9-1 win – the largest margin of victory over a top-five opponent in program history – Aycock was stellar throughout. In her complete-game performance, she allowed a single earned run, two hits, zero walks and struck out five; she kept FSU batters to a .118 batting average.
Aycock is the first true freshman to earn Big 12 softball weekly honors this season.
She is the first OSU true freshman to receive weekly recognition from the Big 12 Conference since Madi Sue Montgomery was named Player of the Week in 2016.
Aycock and the Cowgirls prepare for a six-game slate in week five, starting Wednesday, March 15, as they take on Central Arkansas on the road in a midweek contest slated for 6 p.m. CT.
OSU then welcomes Arizona State and UCF to Stillwater for the Mizuno Classic from March 17-19.
