Someday someone might ask Carrie Van Groll how she ended her collegiate career. The soft-spoken senior biology major would probably reply with a, “Pretty well.” “Pretty well” does not describe Carrie’s last two at bats as a Viking. In the bottom of the seventh Carrie hit a three-run homer to tie the score up at four. After a scoreless remainder of the seventh and top half of the eighth Van Groll came up with two on and two out. Carrie smashed the ball out of the park to give the Vikings a win in their last contest of the win.
Carrie finished the season with a team best .429 batting average. Good luck to Carrie next year beyond the confines of Lawrence University.
