PARKS ON WEINGART - "Lauren's stats last year were respectable, but she has only scratched the surface of what she is capable of doing in a Siena uniform. I fully believe she should be one of the most feared hitters in the MAAC. Lauren can hit for average and power, and with the loss of Jen in the middle of the lineup, will become even more essential to our success in 2009."
