COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Texas A&M junior John Doxakis was named to the SEC All-Tournament Team for the second consecutive year.
Â
The left-hander set a record Thursday by pitching 8.0 hitless innings in a 1-0 loss to Ole Miss, the longest hitless outing in the history of the SEC Tournament. Doxakis scattered four walks and hit a batter while striking out 10 before handing the ball to the bullpen, which allowed the Rebels' first hit and the game's lone run in the ninth inning.
Â
In his last two outings in Hoover, Doxakis worked a combined 15.1 innings of two-hit ball, allowing one run with four walks and 20 strikeouts.
Doxakis was the talk of the 2018 tournament when he took a no-hitter into the eighth inning against Auburn as he outdueled MLB No. 1 overall draft pick Casey Mize. He finished the game allowing one run on two hits and two hit batsmen while striking out 10 in 7.1 innings.
Â
This season, Doxakis is 7-3 with a 1.84 ERA and 106 strikeouts in 97.2 innings. He is holding opponents to a .207 batting average.
Â
For his career, the southpaw is 19-11 with a 2.92 ERA and .215 opponent batting average. His 249 strikeouts ranks 10th on Texas A&M's career list.
Â
Freshman Chris Weber was an All-Tournament Team snub, not earning a spot despite allowing just one hit in 7.1 scoreless innings in Wednesday's 2-0 loss to Georgia. He held the tournament record for longest hitless stretch to start a game for a day before relinquishing the honor to Doxakis.
