WEST PALM BEACH, F.L. - Felician baseball (10-13) finalized their series with Southern Connecticut State University Saturday morning in West Palm Beach, F.L.
The Golden Falcons were held scoreless through seven innings until the green-and-gold took advantage of an Owl error to drop 1-2 on the day.
Here's What Happened:
- In a pattern from yesterday's game, the Owls were on the board after the first inning for the 1-0 lead. They eventually added another in the top of the third, but were held to nil for the remainder of the contest.
- The Golden Falcons struggled find their way back home until the bottom of the eighth inning where they ultimately avoided a shut out. Freshman, Andrew DeAngelis (Staten Island, N.Y.) slammed a first career triple with two outs and scored on an Owl error to put Felician within one, 1-2.
- With the Golden Falcons being the home team in the neutral site, they had one more opportunity to equalize or secure the win. Thomas Kendrick (Jackson, N.J.) led off with a single, but was not able to be driven home for the non-conference loss.
Box Score Insights:
- Haiden Walters (Coral Springs, F.L.) and Kendrick went 1-3 on the day while DeAngelis was 1-1 as a pinch hitter for the lone run of the contest.
