BENSALEM, Pa. – The Holy Family University softball team scored multiple runs in each of its first three at-bats en route to a 11-3 win in the nightcap, bouncing back from a 3-5 game one loss to salvage a split with Felician at Bensalem High School on Saturday.
Individual Highlights
- Rylee Hobel (Coopersburg, Pa./Southern Lehigh) had three hits in both games, finishing the doubleheader for 6-for-8 with four runs and two RBI
- Alexis Letizia (Toms River, N.J./Donovan Catholic) also had multiple base knocks in both games, going 5-for-8 with a home run, double, four RBI and two runs

- Gabrielle Wiley (Willow Grove, Pa./Upper Moreland) and Jaden Kelly (West Deptford, N.J./West Deptford) were both 2-for-3 with two runs
- Molly Moore (Conshohocken, Pa./Plymouth Whitemarsh) earned the win with a quality start, as just one of the three runs she surrendered over six innings was earned
- Gina Olivieri (Philadelphia, Pa./Philadelphia Charter School) and Madison Grubb (Swedesboro, N.J./Kingsway) both had two hits in the opener, with Olivieri also driving in a run
- Kinsley Hall (Frankford, Del./Indian River) threw two innings of scoreless relief in game one, striking out two to move into eighth in program history with 187 for her career
How it Happened
Game One
- Felician led throughout after plating two in the first, one of which was unearned
- HFU got as close as 1-2 with a run in the second, as Lauren Hagy (Philadelphia, Pa./Archbishop Ryan) led off with a walk and Carlie Miller (Hermitage, Pa./Hickory) doubled her home, but the potential tying run was thrown out at the plate on a Olivieri single
- The Golden Falcons carried that momentum into the third with a two-run home run, and the Tigers could never cut the deficit back to one despite bringing the tying run to the plate in each of its final four at-bats
Up Next
Holy Family stays within the city for its next doubleheader, traveling to Chestnut Hill on Tuesday for a 2 p.m. first pitch.
