Softball Celebrates Three Seniors, Tennis and Baseball Return to Action


STORY - THE ESSENTIALS
WILMORE, Ky. --- Today's gameday matchup previews are below:

Asbury vs Shawnee State University | 4/11/23 | 2PM & 4PM | Wilmore, Ky.
Senior Day | Softball

Asbury softball (7-21) hosts NAIA opponent, the Shawnee State Bears (14-15) on Tuesday afternoon to compete in a doubleheader beginning at 2pm.
The Eagles will celebrate their senior day as they honor their three seniors; Olivia Judy (Captain), Olivia Palasek (Captain), and Abigail Fletcher (Captain).

The Eagles and Bears have competed in eight matchups since 2014, with AU going 3-5 against SSU.
The teams' most recent matchup in 2022 was a tough one for the Eagles, playing on the Bears' home field and dropping the doubleheader.
However, early on in the 2022 season AU played SSU at home in Wilmore, Ky., and split the doubleheader.

The Eagles will be eager to earn a win for their seniors and increase their winning record on their 2023 campaign.

Junior Taylor Enlow currently sits at first in the entire NCCAA for doubles with 15 on the season, and eighth in the NCCAA with a slugging percentage of .728 and a .414 average. Senior Olivia Judy sits tied for the number three spot in the NCCAA for fielding double plays, capturing six so far this season, and holding a .979 fielding percentage.

For the second time this season Asbury baseball (17-10) and Berea College (8-23) will meet on the diamond, this time in Wilmore, Ky., with a 6 pm first pitch on Cecil Zweifel Field. Asbury took game one on March 28, but Berea is coming in off an impressive conference series win over Maryville.

Lewis competed in the #2 spot for singles and also won his set against Centre (6-3, 6-2)
