    Riordan was the Lady Aviators shortstop for the 2024, and led the team in almost every offensive category, hitting from the leadoff spot. She slugged a team high six home runs, led the team in runs scored (36), home runs (six), doubles (six) while batting .573 on the season, and had a team high .988 slugging percentage.  She was second in triples with five, trailing sophomore catcher Giuliana Terranova.

    Hasbrouck Heights' pitcher Madelyn Connelly broke the 100 strikeout mark as a freshman, striking out 115 on the season.  She set a season high, striking out 12 against Becton Regional on May 17, and then striking out 10 against Garfield in just five innings.  She finished with a 9-12 record and 3.88 earned run average.

    Hasbrouck Heights resident Faith Camilleri was joined by fellow Immaculate Conception alumni Angela Lingelli and Jaden Farhat in leading Adelphia University to a 34-21 record, finishing their season in the Division II Super-Regionals with a loss to host team Wilmington.

    The three college seniors were key to Adelphi’s success.  Camilleri was a third team NE10 All Conference selection while playing first base.  She was also named to the NE 10 Academic All-Conference team.
