Productive outs brought in all the runs as the Muhlenberg softball team defeated Greensboro, 3-1, in its fourth and final game at the Triangle Collegiate Classic in Raleigh.
The win was the 100th in the Muhlenberg career of head coach
Sarah Leavenworth, who is in her seventh season (the first two were shortened by Covid). Leavenworth has coached the Mules to at least 20 wins in three of her four complete seasons and is the fifth head coach in program history to reach the century mark.
Sophomore
Morgan Bobrowski and junior
Josie Krieman combined on a three-hitter against Greensboro, a 30-win team last year. Bobrowski pitched the first four innings, allowing only one hit, and has not given up a run in her three starts this season. Krieman tossed the final three frames for her first career save.
Sophomore
Hailey Godin drove in the first run with a sacrifice fly in the third, and freshman
Izzy Wilmot hit run-scoring groundouts in the first and seventh. Sophomore
Ava Storlazzi (pictured above) scored the middle run, which proved to be the game winner, after going first to third on a bunt by freshman
Josie Hoffacker.
Godin recorded two singles and a stolen base in addition to her RBI, and junior
Peri Kahn, making her first career start at first base, reached base twice and scored a run.
In the morning game, the Mules (4-2) ran into a juggernaut in second-ranked Virginia Wesleyan, the 2025 Division III runner-up. The Marlins outscored their first six opponents, 62-4, and flexed their muscles early, scoring six runs and belting two home runs before Muhlenberg recorded an out.
Muhlenberg hung in and forced the game to go the full seven innings. Senior
Scooter Hulsen doubled in two runs in the fourth, and with the Mules down 10-2 in the fifth, Hoffacker kept the game alive with an RBI single.
Virginia Wesleyan tacked on three runs in the top of the seventh to win, 13-3.
Freshman
Sofia Gallahue went 2-for-3 in the opening game.Â
