Softball Splits Pair on Opening Day in Florida, Wins 6-2 Before Losing 4-2

LEESBURG, Fla. - The Saint Michael's College softball team began the season by splitting a pair of games on Friday during The Spring Games at the Sleepy Hollow Sports Complex. The Purple Knights downed the College of Staten Island (N.Y.), 6-2, in their opener before losing to Bemidji State (Minn.) University, 4-2.

DOUBLEHEADER FACTS

  • Sophomore Jenna Devens (Parsippany, N.J./Parsippany), who hit a program-record and Northeast-10 Conference-leading 12 home runs in 2022, blasted her 13th career home run on Friday, tying Ashley Harkins '09 for third in program history.
  • First-years CJ Davidson (Canyon Lake, Calif./Vista Murrieta), Brooke Edgerly (Morley, Mich./Morley Stanwood) and Jamie Hearn (Charlotte, N.C./Charlotte Country Day School) all picked up their first college hits on Friday.
  • Saint Michael's met Staten Island for the first time while facing Bemidji State for their third all-time affair, and first since 2017.
