Freshman Hannah Sendel helped the Eagles to a first-place finish at the UAA Softball Championships.

Sendel hit .471, the fifth-highest mark during the tourney, rapping out eight hits in 17 trips to the plate.  She drove in a league-high 15 runs and socked a conference-best four homers.  She hit safely in five of the seven outings she played in and delivered a pair of multi-hit contests, including a 3-for-3 performance against Case Western in the finale of the tourney.   She homered in four different contests including a grand slam against Brandeis in the opening game of the Championships.  Her performance enabled her to be named Co-MVP of the Tournament.
