After a last place conference finish a year ago in which
they only managed to win a single WHAC game, the improved Concordia softball
team enters this week with a 3-11 conference record and three games ahead of
the last place Saints from Siena Heights.
The Cardinals will look for the series sweep against the Saints when
they close out the series tomorrow at Cardinal Field. Concordia won both games of the series opener
on April 1 by scores of 10-0 and 10-1.
A fifth placeconference spot is in sight for the Cardinals as two
other teams, Davenport and Cornerstone, each have three wins as well. While Concordia lost both games to
Cornerstone on April 4 at Cardinal Field, they were able to salvage a split
against Davenport winning the second game last Friday 4-3. Jeni Bollenbacher (Fr - Edwardsburg, Mich)
recorded the win and is 6-14 on the season.
Katie Gallan ( LaSalle, Mich) is leading the Cardinals at
the plate batting .384 in 30 game appearances. Additionally the sophomore is leading the WHAC
with nine stolen bases in conference play. Georgia Dewey (Jr - Marine City, Mich) leads
the team in RBI's with 19.
