This season, Wall was the strongest pitcher for UNW, posting team-best marks in ERA (2.80), innings pitched (64.1) while tying for first on the team for wins (five) and complete games (two).
The sophomore allowed just one earned run over 7.1 innings and struck out three batters in UNW’s only UMAC Tournament win, a 6-2 victory over St. Scholastica last Friday. Wall also led the team with a .333 batting average this season.
UNW is a private evangelical Christian college located in St. Paul, Minnesota.
