BRADFORD, Pa. -- The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford is set for a busy weekend playing four Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference games, first hosting Penn State-Altoona Saturday before traveling to Medaille Sunday.
Prior to the start of Saturday's 1 p.m. games, Natalie Harding and Nicole Nolte will be honored for Senior Day.
Pitt-Bradford has not played since last Saturday, as both scheduled doubleheaders since were postponed.
In their last contests, the Panthers earned a split with Mount Aloysius at the Kessel Athletic Complex.
Pitt-Bradford, 10-12 and 2-4 in AMCC play, was held to just one hit in game one but bounced back for 12 hits and as many runs to earn the win via the eight-run rule in the six-inning second game.
Betty Fratercangelo knocked a two-run single in the bottom of the sixth that put the Panthers ahead, 12-4, and secure the victory.
Of the Panthers' 12 hits, Madison East led the way with three while Fratercangelo and Grace Dadzaa earned two apiece.
Fratercangelo also drove in four runs.
In the circle, Kerrigan Hoffmann picked up the win in game two while Jordan Uhing threw all seven innings while giving up just the two earned runs in the first inning and striking out five.
On the season, East leads the team with 26 hits, 15 runs scored and 13 RBIs.
In the circle, Uhing leads the pitching staff with 35 innings pitched, a 1.40 ERA and 21 strikeouts while holding opposing hitters to a .270 batting average.
Dadzaa enters the weekend with 96 career base knocks, four hits shy of reaching 100 for her career.
Both Saturday's doubleheader at the Kessel Athletic Complex and Sunday's action at Medaille are set to begin at 1 p.m.
Penn State-Altoona enters Friday with a 14-9-1 overall record and a 4-2 mark in AMCC play. Haley Giedroc is one of the top players in the conference as she has knocked a pair of home runs and 18 RBIs while stealing 16 bases.
Medaille enters the weekend with an even 10-10 overall record and a 3-3 mark in AMCC action. Laura Kratzke is the Mavericks' ace in the circle, leading the conference with 117.2 innings pitched and 120 strikeouts. She has been the pitcher of record for 18 of the team's 20 contests, holding a 9-9 record.
