The Siena Saints softball team represents Siena College in college softball for NCAA Division I. The team participates in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC). From 1984 until 1989, the Saints were a member of the America East Conference (AEC). The Saints are currently led by head coach Casey Bump. The team plays its home games at Siena Softball Field located on the university's campus.
History Since joining the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference in 1990, the Saints have managed to win one regular season title, doing so in 2013 in a tie with Fairfield. Despite their successful 2013 regular season, the Saints failed to win the MAAC tournament championship, losing their opening game to Niagara and were eliminated by Fairfield. They won the 2024 MAAC tournament, and advanced to the 2024 NCAA Division I softball tournament for the first time in program history.
Siena's head coaches have won the MAAC Softball Coach of the Year award twice, doing so in 1999 with Barb Finke and in 2013 with Bill Lajeunesse. The team has also won three MAAC Softball Player of the Year awards, winning in 2012 with Shannon Jones and in 2017 and 2019 with Madysen Cossack.
