She finished the season with five hits in 14 at-bats over the last five games of the regular season (.357 batting average) with three RBI. She posted a season-best four-game hitting streak earlier in the year, picking up four hits in 10 at-bats from February 18 to March 4. Robicheau also tallied four of her 13 RBI in that four-game run, picking up two against both Mercer University and George Mason University.

Her season high was three RBI with a pair of hits against Lehigh in late February. She ended the season with 14 runs scored, 19 hits, and 14 RBI over her 46 starts. She had a perfect split with nine hits against the MAAC and nine hits versus non-conference foes. Defensively, she posted a team-best 105 assists from the shortstop position.
