Someone had to lead the Mercyhurst University softball team into a new era. Why not two former Erie County high school stars?

It appears Mercyhurst will host Long Island in the NEC women's basketball semifinals on Thursday at 7 p.m.

There's still a lot on the line for the Lakers as they can win the NEC and although they aren't eligible for the NCAA tournament they can play in the WNIT!
