Davidson pitcher Allen Barry has been named Atlantic 10 Conference Co-Pitcher of the Week, the conference announced Monday afternoon.

Barry improved to 3-1 on the season in Friday night’s 8-4 victory over North Alabama, which began a three-game sweep. Barry tossed six innings against the Lions. He struck out eight and allowed three hits, two unearned runs and walked two. He didn’t surrender a hit after the second inning.

It’s the second honor of the season for the senior right-hander from Malvern, Pa., who was also recognized Feb. 18 after opening the season with a six-inning, two-hit performance against Towson. Against the Tigers, he struck out six and retired the last 11 batters he faced.

Barry is sharing this week’s honor with Fordham’s Cory Wall.
