He was one of just 10 student-athletes in the conference with an earned run average under 4.00 ranking fourth in the conference at 3.41. Alsteen logged the seventh-most innings in the conference at 66.0 and held hitters to a .280 batting average. He earned one NACC Pitcher of the Week award after leading Marian to victories over Edgewood and Dominican. Between the two games he tossed 13.0 innings allowing just nine hits and one unearned run. He threw his lone complete game of the season against the Eagles where he allowed his lone unearned run.
