BOCA RATON, Fla. – Kiley Shelton, a sophomore on Florida Atlantic’s softball team, stepped up to the plate and rose to the occasion at the Gainesville Regional. 
 
The sophomore from Lexington, South Carolina delivered multiple clutch hits, including the walk-off RBI single in extra innings against Georgia Tech, to give the No. 2-seeded Owls (45-12) their first victory in an NCAA Regional game since 2016. 
 
Her heroic performance came on the very same campus that her brother, Colby, currently resides in as the starting shortstop for the nationally ranked Florida Gators baseball team. Rounding out the Shelton siblings is their sister Karley, who leads the No. 12 South Carolina softball team in hits as they enter the weekend hosting a Super Regional.
 
Their ability to be successful athletically was instilled by their parents Bonnie and Eric, star athletes back in their day on the softball and baseball teams at Charlotte. 
 
On the latest “Inside The Owls Burrow,” host Frank Forte chats with the Florida Atlantic Shelton sibling as well as her proud parents about their athletic journeys on the diamond.
