HAVERFORD, Pa. – Junior pitcher Kaleigh Bodak ( Killingworth, Conn./Haddam-Killingworth) has been named Centennial Conference Pitcher of the Week after a dominant stretch in the circle helped propel Haverford softball to an unbeaten showing at The Spring Games in Clermont, Fla.
Bodak went 2-0 with one save across three appearances, tossing 15.1 innings with a sparkling 0.46 ERA and 13 strikeouts while allowing just one earned run on 10 hits. Her steady presence anchored the pitching staff as the Fords continued a historic start to the 2026 campaign.
The lefty hurler opened the week with a three-inning relief outing against Pitt.-Greensburg, allowing just two hits while striking out two to earn the save and secure the victory. She followed with a dominant complete-game shutout against Wesleyan (Conn.), scattering three hits across seven scoreless innings while striking out seven to lead the Scarlet and Black to the win.
Bodak closed the week with another strong performance against Blackburn, working 5.1 innings while allowing just one earned run and striking out four to collect her second victory of the week.
Behind Bodak's efforts, Haverford surged to a 9–1 start to the season and are riding a nine game winning streak into Thursday's doubleheader at home against Gwynedd Mercy. As a staff, the Fords have compiled a 2.97 ERA with 44 strikeouts across 68.1 innings in the circle.
