THE FIRST PITCH
The Bears are coming off a 1-3 weekend in Nashville, earning a win over Lipscomb.
Brown's Laurel Moody was named Ivy League Player of the Week after leading the Bears at the plate, hitting .462 and slugging .846 in four games over the weekend. Moody finished the weekend with six hits, two doubles, a home run and four RBI. Moody finished with at least one hit in three of the four games. In the double header against Lipscomb, Moody finished with five hits, two doubles and four RBI.
Alexis Guevara earned Ivy League Pitcher of the Week honors after dominating in the circle, finishing the weekend with an 0.69 ERA in 13.0 innings pitched and striking out nine batters, while holding opponents to a .133 batting average. Guevara threw a complete game shutout against Lipscomb, allowing just two hits and allowed just four hits and one run against Belmont.
SCOUTING SACRED HEART
Sacred Heart comes into the week with a 6-9 record with losses to Maine and Yale last weekend.
Elle Leckrone leads Sacred Heart with a .389 batting average. Savannah Moore has a team-high three doubles, three home runs and 12 RBI while hitting .356.
In the circle, Sam Kowalski has a team-best 2.54 ERA in 41.1 innings pitched. Kowalski also has a staff-best 43 strikeouts.

Brown is 3-0 all-time against Sacred Heart. The last meeting came back in 2006 when Brown won 4-3. All three contests have been decided by one run.

IN A GOOD MOOD'Y'
Laurel Moody has started the season on fire for the Bears. The senior leads Brown with a .389 batting average, 14 hits, three doubles, four home runs and 11 RBI on the season.
