At Myrtle Beach, in the opening of the softball season, Junior Kate Smayda (White Plains ’09) had a terrific pair of games on the 5th, where in the first contest with SUNIY, a 6-2 win, she led off the game with a home run, the first ever in her college career.

Against Immaculata, in the p.m. game, a 9-5 win, she led off with a hard single to right and later scored. Later, in a five-run 4th frame, she hit the wall with a laser shot, to knock in 2 teammates. On the day, she batted 6-7, scored 6 runs, and had 3 r.b.i's all told.

In two games on the 4th, Muhlenberg topped Simmons, 7-1, with Jamie Klotz (White Plains '11), in her debut softball game for Muhlenberg, having no hits and playing right field, in a 5-0 loss on the 5th.
