Softball Preview 2013
Been Here Before
Coach Jenny Allard has overseen rebuilding jobs in the past. After two straight Ivy championships, her young team has a lot to live up to this year.
In Steady Hands

Freshman pitcher Morgan Groom is one of a trio of pitchers tasked with replacing Rachel Brown and Laura Ricciardone.
