It looks like UMass may send two softball players to the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China - but they will be representing countries other than the United States.

Having recently earned citizenship in Italy, graduated center fielder Candice Molinari will button up her jersey for the land of her ancestors and junior outfielder Davina Hernandez is trying out for the Puerto Rican national team.

Hernandez flew to P.R. last Friday for tryouts and will find out Monday if she will be on the team.

Stay tuned to "From the Press Box" to see if Hernandez will represent Puerto Rico in Beijing.
