CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – The Syracuse softball team (22-16, 3-12 ACC) is set for a three-game series at Virginia (27-13, 8-7 ACC), beginning with a Saturday doubleheader at 2 and 4:30 p.m. on ACC Network Extra. The series wraps up with a 1 p.m. matchup on Sunday, airing on ACC Network.
ORANGE UPDATE:
'Cuse enters the series at Virginia following a 2-1 midweek loss at Cornell. Kelly Breen gave the Orange an early lead with an RBI sacrifice fly in the second inning, but the Big Red responded with a run in the bottom half before delivering the go-ahead solo homer in the sixth to claim the win.
Before the loss at Cornell, Syracuse traveled to Georgia Tech for a three-game series from April 4-6. The Orange dropped two of the three games to the Yellow Jackets but earned a 3-0 victory in the series finale. In the win, Syracuse overcame a slow start at the plate, starting just 1-for-13, before going 5-for-10 in the fifth and sixth innings. RBI hits from Madison Knight, Taylor Posner, and Madelyn Lopez propelled the Orange to the win.
Syracuse heads into the Virginia series amid an 11-game road swing. The Orange are 3-8 in true road games this season, with wins at Duke (March 15), Le Moyne (March 26), and Georgia Tech (April 5).
Through 38 games, Madelyn Lopez has paced the Orange offense, hitting .441 (49-for-111) with 24 runs, 22 RBIs, and two home runs. Her strong campaign ranks among the ACC's best, currently sitting eighth in both batting average and on-base percentage. Tessa Galipeau (.353), Angie Ramos (.321), and Jadyn Burney (.315) have also been key contributors, each batting above .300 this season.
Taylor Posner has been heating up at the plate, driving in nine runs over Syracuse's last seven games, including a two run homer in the Georgia Tech series, her first of the season. After a slow start, the senior has lifted her batting average to .222 and reestablished herself as a steady contributor in the Orange lineup.
In the circle, Julianna Verni and Madison Knight have shouldered most of Syracuse's pitching duties, combining for 187.1 of the team's 252 innings. The duo has totaled 153 strikeouts, with Knight's 86 ranking seventh in the ACC.
SCOUTING THE CAVALIERS:
Virginia enters the weekend with a 27-13 record, including an 8-7 mark in ACC play. The Cavaliers have been in and out of the national rankings throughout the season and are currently receiving votes in the NFCA, ESPN.com/USA Softball, and D1Softball polls.
UVA is led by Bella Cabral, who is batting a strong .400 (44-for-110) on the year and has played in all 40 games of the campaign. She has tallied 28 RBIs with 17 runs and 13 walks. Macee Eaton is also having an impressive year at the plate with a team-best 48 runs batted in with 10 home runs and 41 hits.
SERIES HISTORY AGAINST VIRGINIA:
Syracuse holds a 20-6 advantage in the all-time series against Virginia, including a perfect 6-0 record at home.
The two teams faced off last season in Charlottesville, where the Cavaliers won two of three games, though Syracuse secured a 6-1 victory in the series opener.
UP NEXT:
'Cuse will play a midweek doubleheader at Colgate on Wednesday, April 16. First pitch is set for 2 p.m.
