Dickins played in both games of the Indians sweep Saturday, but earned Pitcher of the Week for her performance in the 10-4 game two victory.
In her first collegiate start, the freshman right handed pitcher, threw six shutout innings while striking out six and allowing only two hits. Dickins also went 1-for-3 and scored two runs in game one.
ICC's home opener that was scheduled for Wednesday has been due to wet field conditions. The make-up date and time will be announced at a later date. The next scheduled date for the Indians is February 14 at Calhoun Community College.
