March 20, 2026 | Softball
BOSTON – University of Massachusetts softball (8-16, 1-4 MAC) split the first two contests of a three game series against conference foe Toledo (6-20, 3-2 MAC).

It marked the first multi-home run game in Torres collegiate career. Torres is up to three home runs on the season, doubling her career total. The L.A. native finished the day 5-6 from the plate with three extra base hits.
The Minutewomen return to action for the final game of a three-game series against the Rockets on Saturday, March 20, at 11am at Boston College.
Game One

Toledo responded quickly in the top of the second frame, knotting the game at one following consecutive singles and a wild pitch.
In the bottom of the second, UMass stayed hot, as Colucci singled, Eliana Raposo reached on an error and Riain Keefe walked to load the bases. In her second at bat of the day, Torres jumped on a 1-0 fastball, blasting a homer to left field and giving the Minutewomen a 5-1 lead.
