CHICO, CA (MPG) -  Less than a day after the California Collegiate Athletic Association announced Chico State right-hander Evan Tomlinson its FloCollege Pitcher of the Week, the National Collegiate Baseball Writers' Association concurred with the conference's selection and named the senior as its West Region Pitcher of the Week on Feb. 4.
 
Going up against No. 5 Point Loma on Feb. 1, in game two of the doubleheader, which was scheduled for seven innings, Tomlinson threw six innings with three strikeouts while allowing just five runners (three hits and two walks). No runner advanced beyond second base during his outing. The Wildcats rewarded him with his first win as they blanked the Sea Lions 3-0 to clinch the three-game series in San Diego.
 
The Wildcats look to open Nettleton Stadium for the first time in 2025 against the reigning GNAC champions Northwest Nazarene in a three-game series. The series is currently slated to begin with game 1 on Friday, Feb. 7 and a doble-header on Saturday, Feb. 8. Game results were not available by press time.
