Did they mix the stats up? Nate didn't allow a hit before exiting. Either way both players are deserving.
 
What got my attention...
remember Marty Costes from the Terps who loved hitting home runs at Haymarket Park to left?

Maxwell Costes is Marty's younger brother.
He's already hitting Home Runs and he just recieved his 2nd B1G Freshman of the Week award, this year.

Thought that name sounded familiar.
 
They edited the first line on Nate Fisher in the official B1G release:
  • Threw eight scoreless innings at No. 21 Baylor in the Huskers’ 2-0 victory on Saturday
It still sounds strange though in comparison with Pauly Milto because the line for him says "pitched 8.0 no-hit innings". Why didn't they say "no hit innings" for Nate Fisher too?

They simply have it wrong, Milto did not pitch 8 no-hit innings. He gave up a two out hit in the 8th. He also never came out in the 9th.

It was Milto who pitched 8 scoreless innings and Fisher who, not only pitched 8 hitless innings but in fact, pitched 8+ hitless innings. #accuracyishard

Also, D1Baseball's Stat Roundup Ranked Nate 2nd of all theSaturday pitchers with a score of 87. Milto was also ranked for Friday games earning a score of 85, good enough for a three way tie in the 4th spot.
