SPRINGFIELD, Massachusetts - A rain-delayed day saw the end of the 2026 American International College softball season as the team fell 10-1 and 7-0 to Saint Anselm College on Saturday, May 2.
AIC ends the season 14-34 with a 10-26 NE10 record.
A walk and two singles put the Hawks on the board in the first, before they erupted for a four-run second with two hits, a walk, a double, and then an error to bring an unearned run home.
They added five more in the sixth, with four walks loading the bases and pushing a run home before Rose Reitmeyer unloaded a grand slam.
AIC did score once in the bottom of the sixth, as Brooklyn Civdanes walked and
Julia Krijgsman and Marliyn Augusta singled to load the bases before
Delaney Archer hit a fly ball that Cividanes was able to tag up and come home on.
In the finale, the Hawks scored four in the second once more, plating runs in succession on a walk followed by four straight base hits and a flyout. Reitmeyer drove in another pair two innings later, knocking a two-out, two-run single. The team's final run came in the seventh, scoring ultimately as the result of an error as well as a walk, wild pitch, and groundout.
