April 28, 2022 | Baseball
DALLAS – Sophomore right-hander Davis Palermo has been named to the NCBWA Stopper-of-the-Year Midseason Watch List; members of the association announced Wednesday. The midseason watch list features 62 of the sport's top relief pitchers. Relievers who are not on the midseason list still have an opportunity to be named a finalist for the award.
Palermo ranks 12th in the nation in appearances with 23 and leads the Diamond Heels with a 2.31 ERA and is averaging 11.8 strikeouts per nine innings with a 3.3 strikeout-to-walk ratio. Opposing batters are hitting a mere .167 against him.
He owns a 1-1 record this season with two saves. His 35.0 innings pitched are the most of any player on the team without a start and fifth-most overall. Palermo has the lowest WHIP (1.00) on the team and has allowed the fewest earned runs (9) of any Carolina pitcher with at least 10.0 innings pitched.
The NCBWA will announce the finalists on Wednesday, June 8 with the winner being named on Friday, June 17 at the 2022 College World Series.
