Full Centennial Conference Release

HAVERFORD, Pa. - Haverford first year catcher Anthony Runfola has been named the Centennial Conference baseball Player of the Week, the conference office announced in its weekly awards release on Tuesday morning. This is the first weekly award win of the season for Haverford and the first career win for Runfola.

Runfola had a standout week for the Fords at the Gene Cusic Collegiate Classic, recording three two-hit games, and unleashing a two-homer, five-RBI game against Muskingum, launching a grand slam for his first collegiate home run to spark a seven-run first inning rally and following that up with a solo shot in the fourth inning.

For the week, the Phoenix, Ariz. product hit .636 (7-for-11) with two home runs, three runs scored, 10 RBIs with a .714 on-base percentage and 1.182 slugging percentage. He registered at least one RBI in all five contests. 

Runfola and the Fords now return to the Philadelphia area to resume practices and non-conference action continues on Friday, March 18 with a trip to Widener and a Saturday matinee doubleheader with Cabrini (March 19). The Fords then host back-to-back home games at Kannerstein Field, going up against No. 9 Rowan and Immaculata on Monday and Tuesday, respectively.
