The 2007 Rider University softball team will look to reach theMetro Atlantic Athletic Conference playoffs for the fourth time in

five seasons.“I am excited about the season,” said 13-year head coach Tricia

Carroll. “We lost seven letter winners, but we have a lot of solid play-ers back and we have a strong incoming class of freshmen so we areexcited.”

Rider returns 10 letter winners, led by seniors Ashley Boulden andDesiree Harbaugh.

“Ashley and Desiree are the designated leaders of the team,” saidCarroll. “Their job is to make practices the hard part and the gamesthe easy part. They are both up for it and because they played for threeyears with a group that was so successful and had so many great lead-ers on and off the field, they have been able to learn from the others andnow they have to step up as leaders and have the younger players fol-low.”

Boulden started every game at second base for the Broncs in 2006.“Ashley will probably see a lot of time in the leadoff spot,” said Carroll.“She has speed, can put the ball in play and she also has power, some-thing you don’t expect from a leadoff hitter. She has gap power andhome run power as well as some short game skills. Ashley and Katy[Mills] work very well together in the infield. It’s taken Ashley sometime to learn second base because she didn’t play all the time at secondher first two seasons and now that she has had a full season at the posi-tion, she is starting to look like a second baseman. Ashley originallycame out of high school as a shortstop and to learn the coverage of anew position is a testament to her great attitude and work ethic.Ashley is putting together a nice career and for her to be on the vergeof career hit #100, that is a good accomplishment considering she hasonly played about two seasons so far.”

Harbaugh started 49 games in 2006, leading the team in home runs.“Desiree is at a different level this season,” said Carroll. “She works ongetting better every day and we look for her to have a strong season.”

The junior class is led by letter winner Tiffany Day-Neutill, a 2007Preseason All-MAAC selection in the outfield. Day-Neutill startedevery game in 2006 and led the team in runs scored. “Tiffany has beenthe ‘go to’ player from the second she got here,” Carroll said. “Theopposing coaches and players in the conference can’t wait until shegraduates. She works very hard and is getting better, keeping in mindhow good she is now. She can be very hard on herself and, in softballespecially, you are going to have an off day once in a while. As anupperclassman, the younger players are looking for her to battle andget through the rough days.”

Other returning juniors include Mandi Sekly, Aimee Schiller andJessica Holland.

Sekly, a left-handed outfielder batted .409 from the leadoff spot as asophomore. “Mandi may lack some speed in the outfield, but shemakes up for it with her instinct reading the ball off the bat,” saidCarroll. “She stepped up last year and helped us to the playoff run, andshe will surprise you. She gets on base any way she can, with a gap hitor beating an infield hit out. With almost every game a one-run game,a player like that is invaluable in the lineup.”

Schiller came off the bench a team-leading 11 times for the Broncsin 2006. “Aimee has been playing part-time at first base and defen-sively, she is solid,” said Carroll. “She has a good glove and plays withconfidence. Her effort at first allows us to hide some mistakes that wemay make in the infield and we are looking for her offense to comearound as we head into the season.”

Holland pitched 23 innings as a sophomore and batted .333 and theBroncs will look to her to lead the young pitching staff. “Jessica is ahard working player,” Carroll said. “She has a good mix of pitches thatwill keep batters off balance. She is not a strikeout pitcher so we aregoing to have to make plays behind her. We graduated HeatherBeintema who had a career record 726 strikeouts and we are going tohave to adjust because we don’t have a dominate pitcher like that, atleast not yet. We are going to have to make plays on the defensive sideof the field. Five or six outs a game by strikeout is what I expect andI think we are solid enough defensively to have the pitchers let thedefense do the work behind them.”

Also joining the softball team this season is junior Danielle Reardonwho was a member of the Rider track and field team as a freshman.

“Danielle’s role is going to be pinch running,” said Carroll. “She wasaway from softball for a while and I am anticipating that Danielle willbe the player off the bench that I can use when we need one run to winthe game. It may be a boring role, but it is a big role. We don’t winwithout a player coming off the bench in her role.”

The sophomore class includes letter winners Lauren Brunner, KatyMills, Laci Landrum, and Clarissa Ortiz.

Brunner pitched 82 innings in 19 games for Rider as a rookie.“Lauren looks like she has picked up some speed and some movement,”said Carroll. “She is coming back from left shoulder surgery and whileshe throws right-handed, the injury did affect her during the off sea-son. She is a really good fielding pitcher and if she wasn’t battling thearm injury, she may have also seen some time in the infield.”

Mills started 50 games as a rookie shortstop in 2006 and scored 15runs. “Katy is a natural shortstop. She is tough and has good rangeand knows the position. She is a competitor and while she had somemoments that she looked like a freshman, she played well for us anddefensively, she may be among the best that we’ve had at the position.”

Landrum led the Broncs in relief appearances as a freshman and bat-ted .500 during her rookie season. “Laci is coming off foot surgery thispast fall,” Carroll said. “We should know by March 1st whether shewill be able to help us this season or if we are going with a two pitch-er rotation. If she is able to return healthy, and I think she is on trackto, she will give us a lot more flexibility having a three pitcher rota-tion.”

Ortiz batted .200 in seven games for Rider in 2006. “Clarissa doessome things at first base really well and will compete defensively forthat spot,” said Carroll. “Her bat is getting better and depending onwhat we need, she will see more time than she did last season. She isa walk-on and all of our walk-on players should be that good.”

The freshman class of 2010 is expected to have an immediate impactfor the Broncs according to Carroll.

“With the freshmen class, the speed of the game coming from highschool is going to be an adjustment,” said Carroll. “Their only experi-ence pressure wise is what their teammates have told them and theyhave to go through the ups and downs of a long season themselves,working on time management, getting enough rest, dealing with theacademic side as well as the athletic side and you can’t simulate that.They have to go through the experiences while listening to their team-mates who have traveled the road that they are about to travel.”

The rookies include Laura Magliozzi, a 5-9 right-handed pitcher,Megan Kozlowski, a 5-5 catcher, Candice Harris, a 5-3 infielder,Derrin Minunni a 5-2 catcher and outfielder and Amber Affholter a 5-4 catcher.

“Laura is a solid pitcher and the good thing is that she doesn’t have tobe the ‘go to’ pitcher as a freshman,” said Carroll. “That will give hertime to grow into the role as a collegiate pitcher and get some inningsunder her belt. She throws hard and probably harder than anyonewe’ve ever had. She doesn’t have the control just yet, but maybe that’sa good thing to keep hitters off balance.”

“Megan athletically may be the best player on the team,” Carrollsaid. “She can do anything. She is small but she is athletic. Webrought her in to catch and with Amber [Affholter] coming off a kneeinjury, Megan will see the bulk of the time behind the plate. She does-n’t have a ton of power, but she is quick, she’ll hit a gap, she can playsmall ball. “I don’t worry about having a freshman behind the platebecause that’s pretty much the way we’ve done it, bring a freshman inand let them play. She is a very coachable player and has made adjust-ments from the fall. She is vocal and not afraid to take charge. She ismature for a freshman. And she’ll play any other position if we needher to and she may see some time at third base.”

“Candice came in having played second base and outfield,” Carrollsaid. “With losing some of the players we did to graduation, she willstep in at third base and didn’t have any problems during the fall sea-son. She is a very talented player and willing to do whatever it takes.She is a solid team player.”

“Derrin is an outfielder and catcher,” said Carroll. “She is a playerthat may not look as fluid as some others, but she gets the job done.She has a strong arm and gets rid of the ball very quickly in the out-field. I expect her to see some time in the outfield as we move throughthe season. Her bat is a surprise. She has power, that kind of ‘play astep deeper’ power, but she is also not afraid to put down a bunt.”

“I’m not sure Amber will play this season,” Carroll said. “She hurtligaments in her knee that I didn’t know existed. She is very talentedand has been pushing the trainers to get her back on the field soonerthan later. I expect that she will have a very good career here. If shegets back on the field, I expect her to start out as the designated play-er and depending on her knee she may see some time in the outfield. Idon’t think she will catch this year. She has home run power and sheis quick. She was a speed skater in Michigan and she was ranked in thestate and she can do a lot. Even when she couldn’t do everything thatthe team was doing, she was still out there trying to get better at thethings that she could do.”

“Overall, I think that the freshman class is very talented,” saidCarroll. “They have some big shoes to fill. We do have 10 letter win-ners back however we lost six players that averaged playing in 41 of the52 games in 2006 and that is a lot to replace in one season. Ourstrength and conditioning program is solid and has helped the youngerplayers and I think it’s going to be more of how we deal with the men-tal aspect of the game that determines how successful we will be.”

“I think this is one of my stronger freshman classes,” Carroll added.“This class and the 2006 class that just graduated. We had a player likeJen Cullen who didn’t even start her rookie season and she bats .400 asa senior and makes all-conference and she did that through solid dedi-cation and hard work and they were all very coachable. I think the2010 class has a very good group of personalities. They have a love ofthe game, but they don’t over think. They are working along with you,thinking about the next play and getting the runner moved over andwhile they have some big shoes to fill, I see a lot of positives early onas we head into the season. This rookie class is probably in the top fivein potential. I measure classes more by character and work ethic thanphysical ability. I enjoy working with players who come in every day

trying to get better and I’ll take that kind of player over a player withpure talent because you need to have players working toward gettingbetter each time they play the game.”

“We are going to have some talented kids sitting on the bench oncewe are healthy,” Carroll added. “That’s a good problem to have. Weanticipate having different players being ready if they need to play outof position but the key is going to be keeping the pitching staffhealthy. I have confidence in every person on the roster that when theyare put in the game, they are going to do the job.”

The 2007 schedule begins with a trip to the Elon Tournament inNorth Carolina and includes 10 games in Florida as part of the RebelSpring Games. Rider opens the 2007 home schedule in late Marchwith the Rider Invitational playing against Villanova, Monmouth andLafayette. The conference schedule begins at Siena on April 14.

“I think the schedule is tough,” Carroll said. “13 years ago when Istarted, there were certain teams that you could mark as a win andthose days are long gone. There is so much parity across the country.There are games you consider reaches and others that are toss-ups. Ibelieve that on any given day, any team can beat another. A ballbounces the right way or you get a call in your favor, things can hap-pen for you and you have to be ready to take advantage of those oppor-tunities. I want to play the better teams each season because that ishow we get better. Playing Rutgers (April 10), Villanova (March 24)and St. John’s (March 28), three BIG EAST teams, should help us. Thetournament at Elon in North Carolina will be tough as well as playingOhio and the University of Delaware, they are very good. I think weplay as competitive a schedule as anybody in the conference and itshould help us get ready for the MAAC games.”

Rider is scheduled for 27 non-conference games before the MAACschedule begins and is scheduled to play 38 non-conference gamesoverall.

“The conference schedule is a whole other animal,” said Carroll.“Everyone shows up every game and it’s like that in every sport. Thoseare the days that you need to show up and battle through the travel andrainouts and makeup games. If you handle all of those things, you havea good chance to come out in the top four and qualify for the MAAC’s.You don’t focus on winning the conference necessarily because thenumber one seed hasn’t won the conference tournament since 1997,but you still have to focus on playing every inning and every pitch withthe mindset that you are playing conference games. You will have fourvery strong teams make the tournament and five very strong teams notmake the postseason and one game usually makes the difference.”

“The conference seems like it will be even,” Carroll said. “Fairfieldhas a solid senior and junior class and they find a way to make the topfour every year so you have to watch out for them. In terms of experi-ence, Canisius graduated some players, but they have some players thatno one saw because they had upperclassmen playing so they will be inthe mix. Marist has the pitcher of the year back. Siena graduated someplayers, but has a lot of talented players left. They were a team thatlooked very strong on paper and had some weird plays happen in 2006.In the deciding game against Fairfield to qualify for the playoffs, theyhad a player picked off second base. In our game, we made at least twoexceptional catches of foul balls over the fence. They had that kind ofseason. So I think they will be itching to get back and will surprisesome people. I think Saint Peter’s will have some talent and Niagaraalso has some talent and could make some noise. Iona and Manhattanwill also be in the mix. I was a little surprised we were picked to fin-ish fourth this season by the coach’s poll. I think it shows how much

respect our program has around league, considering the number ofplayers we lost to graduation. It will take us a few games before we getinto conference to gel and figure out the different roles so we can be setgoing into the conference schedule.

As the Broncs head into 2007, expectations are high and for Carroll,that’s not necessarily a bad thing. “I want a team that has pressure andexpectations on them,” Carroll said. “Every individual player hasexpectations and if you don’t have that pressure, it means you haven’tdone anything. I want to be part of a program that has that pressure,where other teams say well, Rider graduated a lot of players, but theyalways play tough and battle. Last year’s team experienced so muchsuccess, but they had to battle back and win eight straight to make theplayoffs because we didn’t play up to those expectations early in theconference schedule. I don’t want to coach a team that doesn’t haveexpectations. People say we are young, but we won the conference in2003 starting five freshmen and in 1997 we had to win the NCAA-Play In series starting six freshmen or sophomores so I don’t buy intothe inexperience excuse. It’s nice to sneak up on teams that think weare young. In our program, we expect that every time we take the field,we expect to win.”

Like a proud parent, Carroll takes the most pride in the performanceof the softball team off the field and in the classroom. In the fall of2006, the team finished with the highest team GPA of Rider’s 20 var-sity teams, accumulating a 3.44 GPA. This was the third time in thelast five semesters that the softball team had the highest team GPA.

“In our recruiting, I probably talk more about the academics thanabout athletics,” said Carroll. “Having the top team GPA and havingall ten eligible players on the 2006 roster named to the MAAC All-Academic team, those are very important aspects of our program. Werecruit players who want to be successful. You have two jobs, academ-ics and athletics and the expectation is that you are going to do both of

those things well. The players take pride in having the highest teamGPA and we stress that non-stop. We bring in players who want toachieve at the highest possible level that they can achieve. Some of theplayers, it might be a B or a C+, and as long as they are working toachieve to their highest potential, that’s all I can ask them to do. Thesecond they get on campus as a recruit, that’s the primary focus of whatRider softball and Rider Athletics is all about. They have a good time,but they know the sacrifices that they have to make. It is extremelyhard and is not for everybody. The effort that our Academic SupportCoordinator Sonya Hurt has done with the team has been phenomenal.The department has made a commitment to academics and it shows.”

This season also marks the 10-year anniversary for the 1997 teamthat won the Northeast Conference Championship, won the NCAAPlay-In series and advanced to the NCAA Championship Tournament.“I have been so blessed over the years to get good players, but also goodpeople who were willing to make the sacrifices for the team and believein the things I was trying to do,” said Carroll. “And the 1997 teamgot into the situation where we had one healthy pitcher and had to winfour straight games. It was similar to the 2006 season and it was agreat group of kids. We had two eventual Rider Hall of Fame athleteson that team (Jen Dahl ’97 and Colleen Fox ’99) and everyone workedhard and had a blast doing it. They didn’t make themselves biggerthan the game and having to go through the play-in makes that teama little more special because the tournament was only taking 32 teamsat the time. As many things as that team accomplished at Rider, theiraccomplishments after Rider are pretty impressive as well. Theybelieved that they could do it and we had fun while they were doing it.Collectively, the 1997 team has been very supportive of the program,coming back to games and supporting the team financially and we areappreciative of that. That team started us on the path of what Ridersoftball is today.”

Each year, as part of the Rider Athletics Partners in a CaringCommunity program, the softball team participates in the Susan G.Komen Race for the Cure, held at Bristol-Myers Squibb on Route 206South in Lawrenceville, New Jersey. During the seven hour event, theteam volunteered at the finish line of the race, giving out refreshmentsand greeting the runners. Now in its 13th year, the annual New Jerseyrace had over 18,000 participants, including over 1,000 survivors.Founded by Nancy Brinker in Dallas, Texas in 1982 to honor the mem-

ory of her sister, Susan Komen, who died of breast cancer at the age of36, the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation has raised almost$600 million for breast cancer research, education, screening and treat-ment.Other community service activities included senior Ashley Boulden(pictured below) working with children as part of her major inEducation.
