Grambling State’s Mason Martinez was named the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) Co-Pitcher of the Week by the conference on Monday afternoon.

Martinez, a senior from Amarillo, Texas, had a sensational outing for the Tigers over the weekend, guiding GSU to a 3-2 win over Florida A&M in the Ralph Garr-Bill Lucas HBCU Classic.

Martinez fanned four batters over the seven innings of work. He allowed just two runs on five hits to earn his second win of the season.
