USCAA Run Ends with 11-1 Loss to Florida National University

Final Day action sees Bay Path University eliminated in semifinal Round.

Florida National overwhelms Bay Path 11–1 behind early power, big fourth inning (May 13, 2026)

Florida National turned Tuesday night's matchup at Heindl Field into a runaway, rolling past Bay Path 11–1 in five innings. The visitors piled up 15 hits, scored in three different frames, and backed a dominant complete-game performance from Brunella Beteta.

Florida Ntional struck immediately in the top of the first when Alisha Lanyon launched a two-run homer to left, scoring Gianna Hall for a quick 2–0 lead.

The game broke open in the third. Florida National scored four runs, aided by Bay Path miscues and a string of extra-base hits. The inning included:
- An error on a sacrifice that brought home Isabella Silva (unearned),
- Hall's RBI double down the left-field line (also unearned),
- Elizabeth Owens' RBI single, and Kyra Rigozzi's RBI double to right-center.

Bay Path answered with its lone run in the bottom of the third when Caroline Austin doubled to left-center to score Allison Dattilo, trimming the deficit to 6–1.

Any momentum ended in the fourth. Florida National erupted for five runs, highlighted by Rigozzi's three-run triple to right-center. An RBI single from Carollann McClelland and another RBI knock from Alissia Vega pushed the margin to 11–1, and the game ended after five.

Bay Path used two pitchers:
- Madison Sunderland (L, 6–7): 3.0 IP, 8 H, 6 R (4 ER)
- Kaitlyn Kerstetter: 2.0 IP, 7 H, 5 R
