WATERVILLE, MAINE — The North Atlantic Conference (NAC) has recognized two SUNY Cobleskill softball players in its weekly honors, naming first-year standout Gabriella Wendelken (Stuyvesant, NY/Ichabod Crane) the NAC Softball Player of the Week and second-year pitcher Madelynn Orosz (Seymour, CT/Nonnewaug) the NAC Pitcher of the Week for the week ending March 30, 2025.

Wendelken delivered a dominant offensive performance, hitting .583 (7-for-12) with seven runs, three doubles, a home run, and five RBIs while posting a 1.083 slugging percentage and a .688 on-base percentage. She was unstoppable in a doubleheader against Elmira, going a perfect 5-for-5 with four RBIs, two doubles, five runs scored, and her first collegiate home run. Earlier in the week against Hartwick, she added two hits, including a double, and crossed the plate twice. She also contributed in the circle, pitching 4.0 innings with four strikeouts in an 8-8 tie with Elmira.

Orosz was equally impressive in the circle, going 2-0 to improve to 3-0 on the season with wins over Hartwick College and Elmira College. Against Hartwick, she threw a complete-game six-inning outing, allowing three runs on eight hits while striking out three in an 11-3 win. She followed with another strong start against Elmira, tossing a seven-inning complete game and holding the Soaring Eagles to just three runs—only one earned—on nine hits while striking out three in a 6-3 victory.

The Fighting Tigers return to action on Wednesday, April 2, with a doubleheader against Russell Sage College, set to begin at 3:00 p.m.
