Week's Achievements: Kyle Glancy went 2-for-2 in save opportunities during NIU’s 3-2 week at home.  The junior closer recorded both saves by getting more than three outs each time, compiling a 0.00 ERA with just two hits given up and three strikeouts in three innings pitched.  His first save of the week came on April 6 against Bradley, as he threw 1.1 frames, gave up two hits and fanned one to lock down an 8-5 Huskie victory.  Glancy’s second save gave NIU a 7-4 win over Miami (Ohio) after he was perfect with two strikeouts in 1.2 innings.  The marketing major’s flawless week helped him remain unblemished in five save chances this year.
