Erin Jones-Wesley Fourpeats as Big West Pitcher of the Week



Erin Jones-Wesley was honored by the Big West Conference again as she earned the title of Co-Pitcher of the week. Jones-Wesley had two wins and one save for the week of March 21. She beat Ohio and Canisus in her outstanding shut-out performances.

This is Erin’s fourth conference honor of the year, as she has been incredibly dominant to date. She is in great company other famous fourpeats:

Fellow pitcher Greg Maddux won the National League Cy Young award four times in a row from 1992-1995.

Competitive eater Joey Chesnut won this fourth Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4, 2010 and seeks to expand upon his championship run.

The Yankees created a dynasty with Joe DiMaggio in centerfield and won four championships between 1936-1939.

There have also been some truly famous foursomes.

The fab four- The Beatles: Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Star- come to mind first.

There are also four Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Michelangelo, Leonardo, Rafael, and Donatello.

Clearly, four is an impressive number, but this week Erin strives to best her own record as she aims for five straight Big West Pitcher of the Week awards.
