HAPPY EASTER!
ROYER: BEST JUNIOR
Wolverine Ashley Royer named
best junior playing DIII softball
Wesley Wolverine junior #13 UT Ashley Royer (Lititz, PA) has been named the “BEST JUNIOR IN D3 SOFTBALL” after online voting by Hero Sports this past week. The poll was conducted among five finalist.
After 55 at bats as of this morning, Ashley leads the Capital Athletic Conference (CAC) with a .527 average. She also ranks second with 9 doubles and a .527 OBP, third with 20 hits, and fifth by both slugging .782 with 20 runs scored.
Ashley is a utility player who primarily guards the hot corner at third base but you may find her covering just about any infield or outfield position, including catcher.
Ashley is no stranger to fastpitch recognition. She finished last season as a Wolverine sophomore by being chosen for the first team on the 2017 NFCA Division III All- Atlantic region roster as well as being named an All-American Scholar over the past two years. Wesley College recognized her as their “2017 Breakout Athlete” with the college’s special season ending Wespy awards, while the softball team dubbed her as their “Offensive Player of the Year”. She has also earned a CAC All-Conference spot and picked up a Louisville Slugger/NFCA National Player of the Week award last March 2017.

LIVE STATS TODAY
TODAY'S GAME PREVIEW
Game times: 2 & 4 PM
Doubleheader today is preview of
next season’s Atlantic East Conference
The Immaculata Mighty Macs arrived in Dover today with a 3-7 record for a doubleheader against the Wesley Wolverines at DuPont Softball Field at 2:00 and 4:00 PM.
The games are a preview of next year’s new Atlantic East Conference which both teams will join later this July.
The Mighty Macs’ three wins in this early season have been impressive. All have been won on the road.
Immaculata split an opening day doubleheader with nearby Washington College Shorewomen, winning the nightcap 1-0 on a 2-hitter that went 8 innings.
Two days later, Immaculata took the first of two games from the Lynchburg Hornets by a 9-8 tally in another 8 inning contest. (At the time, Lynchburg had been voted #19 in the nation, but the Hornets have since slipped from the top 25 ranks.)
The next day, Mighty Macs scored their third win over the Capital Athletic Conference’s (CAC’s) Salisbury Sea Gulls in a 6-5 nail-biter. (The Wolverines will play the Sea Gulls in a conference doubleheader at home in two weeks, Saturday, April 7.)
Immaculata did drop both ends of a doubleheader against the Swarthmore Garnet, losing 1-2 and 2-6. The Wolverines narrowly beat Swarthmore 4-3 in the front end of our opening day home doubleheader before losing the second game 8-4.
Immaculata is batting .284 with OBP of .344 and slugging .376. The Mighty Mac’s team ERA is 4.57.
Wesley is batting .374 with OBP of .429 and slugging .506. Wolverine hurlers hold a 3.59 ERA.
