No-hitter earns Cahill NSAA Pitcher of the Week honors

BISMARCK, N.D. -- Bellevue University senior Graham Cahill (Omaha, Neb.) has been named the North Star Athletic Association Baseball Pitcher of the Week, as announced by the NSAA office on Monday afternoon.

Cahill fired a no-hitter in Bellevue's 8-0 win over Presentation on Friday. The no-hitter was the first by a Bellevue pitcher since Mitch Savine and Derek Browne fired a combined no-hitter against Dakota State on Apr. 24, 2019. Cahill allowed just two base-runners – a runner reaching on a wild pitch strike three and a fifth inning error – and struck out nine without allowing a walk.

For the week, Cahill worked 10.1 hitless innings on the week striking out 13 batters and issuing just two walks. He earned the win against Presentation and did not factor in the decision as a reliever against Dakota State.

The Pitcher of the Week honor is the second of Cahill's Bruin career, with the first coming back on Mar. 1 of this year.

Bellevue hosts Midland University (20-25) for a double-header tomorrow at John Stella Field at Brown Park. First pitch is slated for 4 p.m.
