One for the history books 📚 After Connor Lockwood’s appearance today, striking out 3 batters, he now ranks 10th in Valparaiso Baseball history with 217 career strikeouts. Oh, and he’s not done yet 😎 #GoValpo | #MVCBaseball

Immaculate inning for @connor_lockwood! 🤩 Lock needed just nine pitches to strike out the side in the bottom of the second tonight at Alabama State, Valpo's first immaculate inning since Colin Fields had one in his no-hitter on March 13, 2021 at Middle Tennessee! #GoValpo
