On Thursday, May 1, 2025, the Lady Mountaineers won against Pocono Mountain West 5-0.

The first three innings were quick, with two straight strikeouts from each pitcher along with one pop fly and a line-out to end the first. Both teams collected outs that ended two scoreless innings.

In the bottom of the third inning, a hit by Izzy Molinero, ’25, and Ava Fagan-Huse, ’27, (and an error on West) allowed two runs, making it 2-0 Stroudsburg.

In the top fourth, Kat Lavra, ’26 singles on a fly ball and brings Dorothy “Dot” Elko, ’26 home, making it 3-0 Stroudsburg.
