Freshman (2007):

Molnar completed an extremely successful first season with the Eagles in 2007.  After becoming the first freshman to make an opening day start for the Eagles since the 2003 season, Molnar went on to hit .341 during the year with three home runs and 25 runs batted in, and lead Eagles in triples (three), walks (25), and stolen base percentage (16 steals on 17 attempts), despite making just 35 starts during the year.  His 43 runs scored and .458 on base percentage were both second-best on the team in 2007.  At the University Athletic Association Tournament, Molnar hit .300 with seven runs scored and a tournament-best two home runs in five games.  The freshman batted .350 with two doubles, seven runs scored and four RBIs over six games at the NCAA Division III Championship Tournament.  He went three-for-four against Chapman University (Calif.) and drove in three runs against the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, while tying an NCAA Championship record by scoring two runs in the sixth inning of the game.
