Seahawks Battle Griffins And Eagles In Home Nest

WILMINGTON, North Carolina – Led by two-time Colonial Athletic Association Softball Player of the Week Janel Gamache, UNCW welcomes Canisius and North Carolina Central for a pair of weekend twinbills at Boseman Field on Friday and Saturday.

UNCW split a twinbill against Canisius on Wednesday. The Golden Griffins used a six-run second inning to claim an 8-6 victory in Game 1.
