Sobel Sets Career Appearances Record; Softball Falls Twice against Geneseo

HORSEHEADS, N.Y. – The Elmira College softball program wrapped up its regular season at home on Wednesday, as the Soaring Eagles hosted the SUNY Geneseo Knights for two games at the Holding Point. The Knights would come away victorious in both contests against the Soaring Eagles.  

Elmira College senior pitcher Maryann Sobel established a new program record for appearances on Wednesday, as she made the 83rd and 84th appearances of her career for the Soaring Eagles. Sobel passed Kim Schaeffer, who appeared in 83 games between 1995 and 1998.
