Diamond in the Rough
First-year outfielder Christina D'Angelo has been a bright spot for Humber's offence, pacing the way with a team-high .364 batting average and four stolen bases.
Petty Theft
Humber's 18 stolen bases are the top-mark in the OCAA. Alexa Vassos and Hannah Koziolek currently sit at the top of Humber's all-time career stolen base list with 20 and 18, respectively.
Induction
Humber softball alumnae Jacquline O'Quinn will be honoured pregame to announce her selection to the 2022 Humber Hall of Fame class. O'Quinn will be the third player in program history inducted into the Hall, joining her sister Jessica, Class of 2016, and Kelsey Bardy, Class of 2018.
O'Quinn was a two-time OCAA champion, two-time OCAA all-star, a career .436 hitter, and still holds the single-season program record with 18 stolen bases.
