She is pursuing a degree in Exercise Physiology.
On the collegiate diamonds
There was an interesting matchup of former Niagara-Orleans League baseball foes on the collegiate diamond Saturday.
Wilson High grad Ian Evans pitched the ninth inning of Elon College’s 13-2 win over Toledo giving up only one hit which was interestingly banged out by Medina High grad and Toledo freshman Brian Fry.
Roy-Hart grad Jake Bruning pitched five innings striking out 7 and allowing 6 hits for Niagara University Saturday in the Purple Eagles 4-2 loss to University of Maryland Baltimore County.
