The Bison softball squad has qualified for the Patriot League Tournament in each of the last two seasons after a three-year absence, and last year’s squad upset second-seeded Lehigh 1-0 on the opening day of the tournament. Bucknell won 19 games and finished 9-9 in the Patriot League last season, and hopes are high once again with the return of two senior pitchers in Madison Roukey and Savannah Jones. Jones was a First Team All-Patriot League selection last spring in the “at-large category (she is also one of the team’s top hitters), and Roukey was a Second Team All-Patriot League honoree in the circle. MaKenzie Hilling is also a returning all-leaguer. The softball team continues to be a department leader academically. The team’s 3.67 GPA in the fall 2024 semester was one of the highest among all Bison programs.
