ECU's Harrell honored on eve of tournament

 

East Carolina junior Keli Harrell collected her second straight Conference USA pitcher of the week honor and fifth of the season in leading the Pirates to a series sweep of Central Florida, according to ecupirates.com.

Harrell earned the victory in each of the Pirates' three wins over UCF on the weekend to bring her C-USA leading total to 25. The junior tossed her 27th complete game of the season in the series finale, striking out nine.

For the weekend, Harrell allowed two earned runs and fanned 15 batters in 15 innings of work. Harrell increased her league-leading strikeout total to 249.

ECU won six straight C-USA contests to close out the regular season and earn the No. 5 seed at the 2006 C-USA Championship that Tulsa will host from May 11-13 at the Donna J. Hardesty Sports Complex.

The Pirates, who finished with a 13-11 league record, will meet fourth-seeded UAB in the tournament opener on Thursday.
