Abbie Merrifield is having another solid season behind the plate for the Elizabethtown College softball team.
The Dallastown graduate is hitting .286 in 14 games for the 6-9 Blue Jays. The senior has 11 hits, has driven in five runs and struck out only three times in 44 plate appearances.
Merrifield will have a homecoming of sorts on Tuesday when Elizabethtown visits red-hot York College for a doubleheader beginning at 3 p.m.
In that game, she will face her younger sister Ali Merrifield, who is in her third year at York (10-4), along with her best friend, Spartan senior Andrea Tombesi.
All three were multi-year standouts at Dallastown High School.
