Kelcie Kippes picks up KJCCC 'Pitcher of the Week' honors

Kelcie Kippes, sophomore pitcher from Rossville, KS, picked up her first KJCCC 'Pitcher of the Week' honor this season after picking up a win and closing out another game last week. Kippes had a good week pitching for the No. 3-ranked Grizzlies in her two appearances last week. She picked up the win on the road at Pratt pitching 3.0 innings in Butler's 18-2 5-inning run rule win. She gave up no hits, no walks and struck out three. Kippes pitched two innings on Thursday in the Grizzlies 15-1 win over Independence. She gave up two hits, one run and struck out another three batters.

Butler has had players pick up Player/Pitcher of the week honors 11-times this season with a pitcher being named the last three weeks in a row.
