Jeff Hutzler tossed the only other individual one-hitter in program history on April 17, 1994, at Nicholls, but Robert Moreno, Larry Mason and Ryan McGinnis combined to limit Prairie View A&M to one hit in a 17-0 run-rule victory on March 1, 2000.
Anderson became the first Roadrunner to be named Southland Pitcher of the Week since Matt Crocker earned the award on April 27, 2009.
