SB: CAITLIN O'NEILL AND JENNIFER FARRELLY PICK UP NORTHEAST-10 WEEKLY HONORS

South Easton, Mass. - Le Moyne College seniors Caitlin O'Neill (Pittsford, N.Y./Our Lady of Mercy) and Jennifer Farrelly (Latham, N.Y./Shaker) have garnered Northeast-10 Conference softball weekly honors, as announced by the conference office on Monday afternoon.

O'Neill, named the conference's player of the week for the first time this season, hit .750 (6-for-8) with two doubles and a run batted in to lead the Dolphins to three victories at the NCAA East Regional as Le Moyne advances to the East Super Regional this upcoming weekend. O'Neill, a second team all-conference catcher, opened the regional with two hits against Dominican on Friday in a 3-2 victory. After posting a double in Le Moyne's 2-1 win over Caldwell in the semi-finals on Saturday, O'Neill capped the regional with three hits, including a double, and drove in a run in her team's 7-1 victory over the Cougars in the finals.

Farrelly, selected as the conference's pitcher of the week for the second time this season, hit .429 (3-for-7) at the plate with a double, a home run, two RBI and a run scored, while going 1-0 with a save and a 0.70 ERA in 10 innings pitched in Le Moyne's 3-0 week. Farrelly, the Northeast-10 Conference Player of the Year, tossed three innings to pick up the save, while allowing just an unearned run, in the 2-1 victory over Caldwell on Saturday. Farrelly, who started the game in the pitcher's circle in the regional final against Caldwell, went 3-for-3 with a double, a home run and an RBI in the batter's box and struck out five batters over seven innings to record her 18th victory of the season in the 7-1 win over the Cougars.

Le Moyne (43-10), which has won 12 consecutive games and 20 of its last 21, will host Georgian Court this weekend in the NCAA East Super Regional. The best-of-three series will begin on Friday with a single game starting at 1:00 p.m. The series will continue on Saturday at 11:00 a.m., with the "if necessary" game following at 1:30 p.m. The Dolphins will be playing Georgian Court for the first time in the program's history.
