Softball: South Feature Athlete - Seton-LaSalle's Lauren Zola

Written by Nicholas Tolomeo on .

Athlete: Lauren Zola
School: Seton-LaSalle
Sport: Softball
Position: Pitcher
Grade: Freshman

Only a freshman, Lauren Zola has taken over pitching duties from her older sister Chelsea Zola and has helped guide Seton-LaSalle to a perfect 10-0 start. Chelsea is now pitching at Clarion University while Lauren Zola is guiding the Rebels.

“They are very different type pitchers,” Seton-LaSalle coach Jay Krull said. “Chelsea is probably more of a junk ball pitcher with just outstanding control and Lauren is more of a power pitcher.”

Krull had no reservations about starting a freshman pitcher this season. For one he saw Chelsea Zola pitch for two years and he has also followed the career of Lauren since she was 10 years old.
