The 2009-10 women's basketball team won the program's second East Coast Conference Championship in a span of three years with a 49-42 victory over the University of Bridgeport.

In the  history of the Molloy softball program, few names are as recognizable as Megan Butterworth's. Named All-East Coast Conference First Team all four years, Butterworth's dominance in the circle helped lead the Lions to three ECC Championships, two NCAA East Regional Championships, and two appearances in the Division II National Championship.

Butterworth tossed a two-hitter, striking out nine batters in a 6-0 victory over Caldwell University to advance the Lions to the 2013 East Super Regional against Adelphi. The pitcher returned to the circle in the first of two games against the Panthers, fanning 13 batters while allowing only two hits. Needing one final victory to earn a spot in the National Championship Tournament for the second time in her career, Butterworth struck out seven batters in a five-inning mercy rule victory, 8-0.

Butterworth was also the starting pitcher for the Lions' first five games in the Division II National Championship Tournament (2010 and 2013).

Through her storied career with the maroon and white, Butterworth was selected All-Region all four years by both Daktronics and the National Fastpitch Coaches Association, totaling seven selections including being tabbed the 2013 East Region Pitcher of the Year by Daktronics.

A tradition of excellence has come to be expected of the Molloy softball program, winning four East Coast Conference Championships in the past eight years and appearing in three NCAA National Championship tournaments. It can be said that the offensive power of Carla Campagna helped to ignite the spark.

For four straight seasons, Campagna led the team in home runs while leading the Lions in runs batted in, total bases, and walks three out of four years. The first baseman's name tops the record book in runs batted in (207), total bases (442), home runs (44), putouts (1147), and fielding percentage (.994) while ranking in the top-five at Molloy in walks (76, 2nd), slugging percentage (.631, 4th), and hits (256, 4th).
