Davies, Dolejs, Reid, Stepp & Williamson all named to the squad
Five members of the Bowling Green State University softball team have been named to the 2022-23 Academic All-District® Team, selected by College Sports Communicators (formerly CoSIDA). The team was announced on Tuesday afternoon (May 16).
Hannah Davies, Peyton Dolejs, Wynnie Reid, Sydney Stepp and Reagan Williamson all were named to the team.
Davies, in her fifth year with the program, led Falcon pitchers in innings pitched, appearances, games started, earned-run average and strikeouts in 2023. She had a team-high seven complete games among her 19 starts. In the final game of her collegiate career, she threw a complete-game four-hitter en route to the win in BG's 4-2 triumph at Northern Illinois, striking out the last two batters. Davies ended her BGSU career ranked seventh in school history in career strikeouts per seven innings (5.13).
In the classroom, Davies earned her Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry with a specialization in biochemistry, graduating in May of 2022 with a cumulative grade-point average of 3.791. She is currently in BGSU's Master of Business Administration (MBA) program, and has a cumulative GPA of 3.896.
Dolejs, a junior, was one of the team's top hitters in 2023, playing all 50 games and making 48 starts. She led the Falcons in at-bats, triples and runs scored and was second in hits, doubles, runs batted in, and extra-base hits. After three seasons as a Falcon -- including a freshman year that was shortened due to COVID -- Dolejs is batting .280 with 108 career hits, 69 runs scored, 30 extra-base knocks and 51 RBI.
Dolejs, a mathematics major at BGSU, has a cumulative GPA of 3.648.
Reid, a sophomore, moved into a full-time starting role in 2023 after starting 24 games as a freshman in 2022. She played in 46 of BGSU's 50 games this season, making 45 starts at shortstop. Reid hit .279 in MAC games to rank second on the team. On the year, she scored 12 runs and drove in eight, and she had two doubles, two triples and a homer among her 24 total hits.
Reid, an exercise science major at BGSU, has a 3.898 cumulative GPA.
Stepp, a senior, pitched in 18 games in 2023, and was second on the team with 13 starts. She appeared in all three games of the Falcons' MAC-opening series vs. arch-rival Toledo in relief, and did not allow an earned run in four-plus innings or work. Stepp saw action in 47 career games as a Falcon, making 24 starts, and struck out 85 batters over 125 career innings. She set individual career bests in appearances and starts in '23.
Stepp, an accounting major at BGSU, finished her undergraduate career with a perfect 4.000 cumulative GPA.
Williamson played in 46 of the Falcons' 50 games this spring, making 45 starts, and hit .246 to rank second on the team. She led the Falcons with 20 walks, and was second on the club in on-base percentage. The junior catcher had a .983 fielding percentage this season, with just two errors in 116 total chances. She led the team with a .369 OBP in conference games. Williamson has nine career homers, leading active Falcons in that category along with career walks (51). She has a career batting average of .265 with 80 hits and 49 RBI.
Williamson has a 3.675 GPA as an exercise science major at BGSU.
