MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – The Bentley softball team concluded its season-opening trip to Florida in a big way Sunday, beating nationally-ranked No. 5 Saginaw Valley State, 10-6. Earlier in the day the Falcons lost to No. 23 Barry, 10-1. Barry hosted both games.

Bentley loaded the bases with one out thanks to Callahan drawing a walk, and consecutive singles by Michelle Diaz and Feiler. Alexa Gross forced in a run by working a free pass. With the bases still loaded, Ella Bunovsky reached on a fielder's choice where an out was not recorded, and Diaz came in to touch home plate.

The next batter, Carly DiMento, drew a walk to force in another run and cut Saginaw Valley's lead to 4-3. From there, Harris delivered a two-run single to put the Falcons out in front, 5-4.
