THE WORD ON LE MOYNE
Le Moyne has an 8-15 overall record with a 1-2 record in the Northeast Conference. The Dolphins fell to Central Connecticut in both of Saturday's games in New Britain, Conn., winning 4-3 on Sunday. Isabella Kwashek earned Prime Performer for a .84 ERA in three appearances and one start against CCSU.
Alyssa Dybacz leads the team with a .329 batting average and 23 hits. Sydney Nesci has recorded 16 RBIs this season. Kwashek and Nevaeh Ross have ERAs of 4.23 and 4.75, respectively.
LAST TIME WE MET THE DOLPHINS
Le Moyne joined the NEC beginning in the 2023-24 academic year, so last season was the first series between these two programs. Saint Francis won all three games at home last season. Game one went to eight innings, with games two and three being decisive run-rule games.
Olivia Ulam went 5-for-8 with two runs scored, one double and two RBIs in day one of the series, going 2-for-3 with one run scored and two RBIs in the second day. Ulam earned NEC Player of the Week and was joined by Ashley Orischak and Grace Vesco as Prime Performers.
LAST TIME OUT
Saint Francis dropped both games of a doubleheader to Robert Morris 11-7 and 5-4.
Savannah Nash and Sofia Zielinski both hit home runs in the first inning of the first game but could not pull out a win in game one. In the second game, the Red Flash had a 4-1 lead going into the sixth inning, but the Colonials scored two runs in both the sixth and seventh innings to take the second game.
UP NEXT
Saint Francis will travel to New Britain, Conn. to play CCSU on March 29-30.
