Saint Leo makes it six in a row with come-from-behind win

SAINT LEO, Fla. - Saint Leo Softball won their sixth in a row with an 8-4 comeback win over Florida Southern in the first game of a doubleheader on Saturday. 

The Lions trailed Florida Southern, 4-2, going into the bottom of the sixth inning. Alyssa Perez singled and Madyson Coe walked to bring the tying run on base for the Lions. That's when Kayleice Hooks, pinch hitting, came to the plate and singled home Perez and moved Hope Epps, pinch running for Coe, over to third base 90-feet away from tying the game.

She grabbed her fifth and sixth RBI's of the season. Bayley Williams would then pinch run for Andujar, and move to third on an Alexandra Hare single, putting runners on the corners for Jordyn Wolfe. 

The lead expanded to three when Jordyn Wolfe connected and roped a RBI triple down the right field line scoring Williams and Hare, giving Saint Leo a 7-4 lead. Wolfe would score when Morgan Shannon grounded out to second, making the score 8-4 in favor of the Lions.
