Merion Mercy Academy Welcomes New Head Softball Coach Melissa Razler

Merion Mercy Academy is pleased to announce the appointment of Melissa Razler as the new Head Softball Coach.

Coach Razler brings an impressive playing and coaching background to the Golden Bears program. A graduate of St. Basil Academy, she was a multi-sport athlete, competing in both softball and basketball, and went on to play travel softball with the Philadelphia Spirit. She continued her softball career at Arcadia University, where she was a four-year pitcher, team captain, and four-time All-Conference selection. During her collegiate career, Razler pitched two no-hitters and a perfect game, and earned a national ranking of 17th among pitchers for lowest ERA.

Following her playing career, Razler served as a pitching coach at the University of the Sciences for two years and has additional experience coaching youth baseball. She remains actively involved in the sport, continuing to play competitively.

“I am ecstatic to join the Merion Mercy community as head softball coach for the upcoming season,” Razler shared. “Softball has been a huge part of my life, and for as many years as I’ve played the game, I’ve loved every second of it. I’m excited to share the experience and knowledge I’ve gained with our student-athletes. Merion Mercy’s Mercy mission truly resonates with me, and from the moment I stepped on campus, it felt like home.”

Merion Mercy Academy looks forward to the leadership, passion, and competitive excellence Coach Razler will bring to the softball program as she helps guide student-athletes both on and off the field.
