Bridgewater, N.J. – Three members of the Le Moyne College softball team have earned Northeast Conference All-Conference recognition, as voted upon by the league's nine head coaches and announced by the conference office on Wednesday afternoon.

Junior right fielder Alyssa Dybacz (Baldwinsville, N.Y./C.W. Baker) and sophomore designated player Audrey Benderski (Spring Lake Park, Minn./Spring Lake Park) were selected to the all-conference second team and freshman pitcher Arianna Exarchakis (Monroe, N.Y./Monroe-Woodbury) was tabbed to the all-rookie team.

Dybacz earns her third consecutive all-conference recognition after being named to the Northeast-10 Second Team as a freshman and the NE10 First Team last year. Dybacz led the Dolphins in almost every offensive category, registering a .345 batting average, .546 slugging percentage, 60 hits, 37 runs scored, 27 runs batted in, nine doubles, six home runs, four triples, five sacrifice flies and three stolen bases, while posting the second-best on-base percentage (.390). She led the team with 16 multi-hit games, including eight with at least three hits. She posted the team's longest hit streak, which spanned nine games from April 17-27, while recording a 14-game on-base streak from April 17-30. She led the NEC in sacrifice flies, tied for first in triples, second in hits, third in runs scored, fifth in batting average, seventh in slugging percentage, eighth in OPS, tied for eighth in home runs and 10th in RBI. Her five sacrifice flies are tied for the third-most in a season in the program's history, her 95 total bases are tied for the ninth-most, her four triples are tied for the 10th-most, her 37 runs scored are the 16th-most, her 60 hits are tied for the 19th-most and her six home runs are tied for the 20th-most. In conference play, she slashed .266/.322/.329 with 14 runs scored, seven RBI and a pair of triples.

Benderski collects her second straight all-conference accolades after being selected to the NE10 Third Team last year. Benderski finished her second year on the Heights with a .285/.387/.444 slash line with a program-record 24 walks, 20 RBI, 13 runs scored, nine doubles, four home runs and one triple. She recorded 12 multi-hit games, including three with at least three hits, and had a team-high six multi-RBI games, including a pair with at least three RBI. She registered the second-longest on-base streak on the team, opening the year by reaching base in each of the first 13 games. She ranked fifth in the NEC with her 24 walks, which eclipsed the previous record of 23 set by Courtney Case in 2016. In conference action, she slashed .237/.366/.322 with 12 walks, seven RBI, five runs scored and one home run.

Exarchakis was honored for her two-way role. At the plate, she slashed .341/.412./523 with 12 RBI, six runs scored, six walks, two home runs and two doubles. In the circle, she went 5-13 with six complete games, a 7.68 earned run average and 58 strikeouts over 92.0 innings.
In conference action, she slashed .379/.441/.655 with a team-best 11 RBI, five runs scored, two home runs and two doubles. She went 2-4 in the circle with a 7.30 ERA and 25 strikeouts over 38.1 innings.
