Whitney Mollica was a great addition to the Stratford Brakettes in 2006. An outstanding fielder, playing both at first base and third base, Whitney finished third in the batting race with a .440 average. She was second in hits with 51, first in RBI with 43, and she led with eight home runs. Capping the season with a National Championship, Mollica was a First Team ASA All-America. A two-year standout at the University of Massachusetts, which made it to the NCAA Super Regional this year, Mollica finished the season with a .305 average with 32 RBI. She earned Second Team Easton All-America honors during her freshman season, which saw her hit .394 with 12 home runs and 61 RBI. A four-year letter winner at Salem, NH, High School, Mollica batted .556 as a senior with 40 RBI. She, too, dabbled in pitching, compiling a 13-3 record in the circle. Salem High compiled an 81-9 record during Mollica’s career, which also saw her named First Team All-State three times. She also earned All-State acclaim for her high school field hockey team that garnered two state titles. The way her career is going, pretty soon former major league player/manager Don Zimmer will be known as Whitney Mollica’s grandfather instead of the other way around.
