Schantz Goes Deep, but Softball Drops Pair to Widener

GLENSIDE, Pa – The Arcadia softball team dropped a pair of conference contests to Widener Wednesday, falling in game one, 4-0, and game two, 6-5. Sophomore Hunter Schantz was the highlight of the Knights' offense with her team-leading fourth home run of the season.
