Gillespie belted six home runs and hit .440 (11-for-25), leading Long Island to a 5-3 mark last week. The junior also collected 10 RBI, scored nine runs, tallied five walks and is in the midst of a seven-game hit streak. She started the week off with a 3-for-6 performance, which included a solo home run in a doubleheader sweep of Wagner and followed with three hits and an RBI against defending Big East champion Seton Hall. In a game two, 6-2 win over defending NEC champs Robert Morris, Gillespie scored the would-be winning run after she singled and scored on a single up the middle. Her best performance of the week came in a sweep of St. Francis (PA), where she drove in eight runs and scored five runs. Gillespie is ranked in the top-five in the NEC in several offensive categories, including RBI (33 - 2nd), home runs (10 - 1st), hits (41 - 5th) and slugging percentage (.672 - 5th).
