The Rockhurst softball team will face Missouri S&T Saturday in a noon doubleheader at Avila University in south Kansas City. The games were moved to Avila's turf field due to rain in the forecast this weekend.

The Hawks opened their GLVC schedule last Sunday with a doubleheader sweep at Southwest Baptist and have won four of their last six games. Rockhurst split a doubleheader Wednesday at Missouri Western and will bring a 7-12 record into the weekend.

Gwen Bostick leads the Hawks with a .328 batting average, while Jayla Pierce is batting .305 and leads Rockhurst with four home runs and 17 RBIs. Maya Gallagher also is hitting .305 on the year and has six extra-base hits among her 18 hits on the season. Anna Newcomer has made nine starts and has fanned 21 in 36 1/3 innings while posting a 5.01 ERA.

S&T dropped its first two conference games at Quincy on Sunday but rebounded with a doubleheader sweep over Truman State on Monday to even its GLVC mark at 2-2 and move to 10-12 overall on the year.

Rockhurst leads the overall series, 16-8, with S&T with the last win coming in 2021 with a 7-5 victory at home.
