Myrtle Beach, S.C. – The Hilbert College women’s softball team improved to 6-3 with a 4-2 win over Oswego State and an 11-4 rout of Mount St. Vincent College today in Myrtle Beach, S.C. 

 

Sophomore Amber Fie (Olean/Olean, NY) hit a three-run double in the fifth inning to give the Hawks the lead for good in game one. Freshman pitcher Meghan Gollaher (Spencerport/Rochester, NY) allowed six hits while picking up the win on the mound against the Lakers.

 

Freshman Michelle Greco (Southwestern/Jamestown, NY) went two for two from the plate with a double, triple, and six RBI’s against Mount St. Vincent.  The outfielder also scored a pair of runs while teammate Katie Ahearn (Lancaster/Lancaster, NY) hit her first career home run. Gollaher went the distance and picked up her sixth win on the mound, striking out four Dolphin batters while refraining from giving up an earned run.

 

Hilbert will play a double header at Lake Erie College at 2:30 p.m. March 23.
