WALTHAM, Mass. –
Taylor Zajac was named the Northeast 10 Softball Rookie of the Week after pitching Bentley to two wins over Adelphi.
Zajac tossed two complete games to help Bentley earn a split of the four game series with the Panthers, who came into the weekend in first place in the NE10.
In Friday's second game she allowed just one run and scattered five hits over seven innings in a 6-1 Falcons win.
On Saturday she again allowed just five hits and the two runs allowed were unearned in a 7-2 Bentley victory.
Zajac, from Buffalo, N.Y., has pitched 11 complete games this season.
Bentley continues its home stand on Wednesday when they host Southern New Hampshire.
