Kissimmee, Fla. - Sophomore 1B Nicole Nardella (Beverly, Mass.) homered to highlight a five-run fifth inning and lead the Trinity College Bantams to a 7-6 win over Allegheny College in Rebel Spring Games softball action this afternoon.  Trinity, which also lost to Fontbonne, 5-4, this afternoon, is 5-5. 

The Bantams held a 7-0 lead against Allegheny and held late, before taking a 4-0 lead against Fontbonne and surrendering five late runs.  Trinity freshman hurler Lindsay Gibbons (Basking Ridge, N.J.) relieved sophomore Kristen Anderson (West Haven, Conn.) in both games, as Anderson pitched nine innings of scoreless ball but ran into trouble in the fifth inning of each game.  Gibbons earned the decision in both games, while freshman Katherine Poulos (Wilton, Conn.) replaced Gibbons in both and earned a save against Allegheny.  Junior Patricia Cipicchio (Southmont, N.C.) and sophomore Katherine Stoltenberg (Montgomery, N.J.) had doubles for Trinity against Fontbonne.
