Edgewood College softball opens their 2025 slate this week as they look to build off their first NACC Tournament appearance since 2015 and three-straight 20-win seasons. 

“Our Seniors are motivated to “Finish the Rebuild”,” said head coach Allie Taylor. “After posting 20-win seasons during each year of their careers, this group cannot wait to cap off their time as Eagles with an exclamation point!”

“One thing that sticks out to me about our roster is our pitching staff. We have five pitchers who are poised and ready to throw. I am extremely optimistic about the variety that each of them brings and the work that they have put in during the off season to improve their craft.”

9 – Olivia Herbert led last year's squad in nine batting categories. She earned NFCA Second Team All-Region honors.
 
2 – The Eagles return two All-NACC players from last year's squad. Gracie Halfman was tabbed for an Honorable Mention accolade
 
First – Olivia Hebert was named First Team All-Conference for the third-straight season as a junior last year. 

"As always, fans should expect to see a show from Olivia Hebert. Our 3x First Team All-Conference Catcher has BIG goals and I can not wait to see what records she takes down in her last season as an Eagle."
