Emma Mendoker transfers to UMass

One of the top pitchers in Western Mass history, Emma Mendoker will be transferring back to her hometown of Amherst to pitch for UMass.

Mendoker had an amazing high school career, which included being named Massachusetts Gatorade State Player of the Year last season. She absolutely dominated the competition en route to a runner-up finish in the MIAA Division 1 State Final to King Phillip (which also had future A10 players). Mendoker played high school ball with Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Year Quianna Diaz-Patterson at Amherst Regional HS.

Mendoker also played travel ball with Diaz-Patterson for the Polar Crush. The Crush have been very nice to the Minutewomen in the past, sending Jess Serio, Bailey Sanders, Carly Morin, Bailey Sanders, Amanda Morin, Jenna Busa, and Michea Holness as well as multiple others.

Mendoker will be coming off a freshman season at East Carolina, which she redshirted due to an injury. Mendoker will team with Caroline Raymond, Lindsey Webster, and Bridget Lemire in the circle next year for the Minutewomen.
