Northern Kentucky University’s Sean Munninghoff (Cincinnati, Ohio) is the Great Lakes Valley Conference Baseball Pitcher of the Week.

Munninghoff, a senior pitcher for the Norse, helped his club gain a split at Indianapolis over the weekend by posting a solid outing in the series opener.

In Northern Kentucky’s 5-0 win in Saturday’s first game, Munninghoff went the distance in the nine-inning shutout. He allowed just three hits on the afternoon and just UIndy runner advanced past first base.

Munninghoff struck out two and walked just one to record the first complete game in his career. It was the first complete-game shutout for the Norse this season.

On the year, Munninghoff is 4-2 with a 2.65 ERA. He also leads the Norse with 43 strikeouts in nine appearances. Munninghoff has surrendered just 15 earned runs in a team-leading 51 innings on the mound this season.

Northern Kentucky (22-17) is in second-place in the GLVC East Division with an 11-5 divisional mark. The Norse will host Lewis in a four-game series this weekend.

Other top performers in GLVC last week included Bellarmine’s Derek Mattingly, Indianapolis’ Cory White, Kentucky Wesleyan’s Robert Coulter, Missouri S&T’s Andrew Page, Quincy’s Eric Muskopf, Rockhurst’s Mark Himmelberg, Saint Joseph’s  Shane Zegarac and Southern Indiana’s  Shaun Larsen.
