Gray, O’Rourke Continue Softball Careers in Sweden
Former UMBC softball players Ashley Gray and Carla O’Rourke spent their summer playing for the Karlslund Eagles in Örebro, Sweden. Gray and O’Rourke join a growing number of Retrievers to play professionally overseas after using up their collegiate eligibility, including Megan Oursler in 2005, Amy Sadowl in 2006 and Lauren Nicholson in 2007.
FORMER UMBC PITCHER AMY SADOWL PLAYING PROFESSIONALLY IN THE NETHERLANDS
Amy Sadowl’s senior season at UMBC was cut short. The pitcher from Horsham, Pa., made just eight appearances in 2006 before shoulder tendonitis shut her down for the next month, and she took the mound only six more times all year. So when she was presented the opportunity to play professionally in the Netherlands, extending her softball career for another four months, she jumped at it.
