The MIAA softball tournament only invites the top four teams from the regular season competition and in three of the last four years, the Belles have found themselves among that company.
After claiming the 2004 tournament championship over Alma, the third ranked team in the nation, Saint Mary’s has found its way back there both in 2006 and 2007 behind some magnificent record breaking performances. In her first year on-campus Kristin Amram broke the College’s season strikeout record when she fanned 201 batters in 2006. Last year, Sarah Miesle set a new Saint Mary’s career mark by hitting her 16 homerun during her four seasons under the Bell Tower.
The squad has also been record breaking in the classroom. During the 2007 campaign the team accumulated a 3.38 team GPA which not only earned them MIAA honor roll accolades but also placed them 17th in the entire nation.
Erin Sullivan ’04 has been the leader behind the operation and is entering her third season at the helm of the program.
