River Forest, IL — The Northern Athletics Conference (NAC) announced the 2007 softball all-conference team with Dominican University’s Lea Marzolo (Fairview, MI) and Nikki Lang (Northbrook, IL) receiving All-Conference Honorable Mention honors.

She banged out 39 hits, including one double and one triple, with 18 runs scored and eight runs batted in and was a perfect 13-for-13 in stolen bases. In addition to her all-conference honors, the NAC also named Marzolo, a freshman, to the 2007 NAC All-Rookie Team.

Lang, a senior pitcher/shortstop, appeared in 20 games on the mound and posted a team-best 4.87 earned run average with a team-high seven wins. In just over 83 innings of work, Lang recorded 73 strikeouts while opposing hitters managed a .317 batting average against the 5’6” right-hander. Offensively, Lang posted a .344 batting average with a .516 slugging percentage and .413 on-base percentage. She drove in 18 runs and scored 20, both ranking second on the team, and was a perfect 5-for-5 in stolen bases.
