1pm: Championship Game

Player to Watch: Tom Englehardt (Sr.)

Senior Tom Englehardt (Bradford, MA) has won two straight Sunrise Conference Player of the Year awards. He is on track to earn his third as he has continued to hit. His .462 batting average is the best in the conference and 15th in the country. Englehardt was also named to the NAIA Pre Season All American team. With scouts already paying attention to him, look for him to have a good tournament and become the first Fisher College Athlete to be selected in the Amateur Draft coming up in June.

Softball

This will be a best of three series between #2 Fisher College and #1 University of Maine at Presque Isle. Games will be played in Presque Isle, ME on Saturday, April 25th.

Junior Jackie Streeter (Westminster, MA) is leading the country in batting average (.586) and slugging percentage (1.008). She has also belted 10 Home Runs on the season.
