| Monica Macchiarulo |
Although she is just a sophomore in high school, Monica Macchiarulo has already attracted the attention of quite a few programs. Macchiarulo is a left handed hitting outfielder from Newtown, Connecticut, which is right the heart of A10 recruiting territory. Macchiarulo even caught the attention of the coaches of the Stratford Brakettes last summer and played in two games for the Brakettes. The Brakettes have numerous Atlantic 10 ties including Lindsey Kay Bright of Fordham, Erin Gallagher of St. Joseph's, Christine Della Vecchia, Sara Plourde, and five alums from UMass. Macchiarulo hit .400 for the Brakettes and scored 2 runs for the Northeast powerhouse. Hopefully they will ask her back again this year because she can play.
Being from Connecticut, Macchiarulo is going to be highly sought after by both UMass and Fordham. St. Joseph's and Rhode Island also figure to make a run at the talented young outfielder as well. This is going to be one of the more intense recruiting battles in A10 history, if Macchiarulo keeps developing. Hofstra and UConn also figure to make charges at her as well, but the A10 schools are in much better shape at the moment.
One more thing: Monica has a younger sister Morgan who might be just as good. If you get one Macchiarulo, you might also get a second
