CLERMONT, Fla. - The Bowdoin College softball team picked up two more wins on Wednesday, claiming a 2-1 victory over Frostburg State and a 6-3 decision over FDU-Florham to improve to 4-0 this season.

Clare Ronan accounted for both Bowdoin runs, going 2-4 with two RBI while Shavonne Lord had a triple and Lauren Coven a double in the win.
