GAME PREVIEW
• The University of Dayton baseball team will face Buffalo in a four-game series this weekend. The games will be played both at Grant Park in Westfield, Ind. and Athletes in Action Field in Xenia, Ohio. The Flyers and Bulls will play Saturday at 3 p.m. in Indiana before meeting again twice on Sunday at 11 a.m. on the same field. The series finishes up Monday at 4 p.m. in Xenia.
• The Flyers are 3-6 on the year, but coming off a good weekend in Georgia where they went 2-1 against Murray State. Pitching proved to be a strength for UD against the Racers, allowing just three runs on eight hits over the final two games. Head Coach Tony Vittorio is hoping to get more games under the Flyers belt this weekend as weather has been an issue with scheduling. The Atlantic 10 season is just two weeks away.
• Buffalo is 1-4 on the year, but coming off its first win of the 2015 season with a 5-3 victory over Bucknell last Saturday. The Bulls have also lost a number of games due to weather and will be looking to get back to work after a week off. Head Coach Ron Torgalski is in his ninth year at the helm of Buffalo.

HONORARY FLYER CAMERON NEAL
During the 2013 season, the Dayton Baseball program announced the addition of Cameron Neal to its family. Cameron is a local boy that has battled a brain tumor. He was partnered up with the Flyers through the Friends of Jaclyn foundation. What started out as a young boy meeting with a few players has blossomed into a tight-knit relationship that not only benefits Cameron, but the players as well. With his own locker and uniform, Cameron will be seen at as many of the games as he can attend this season. He is not part of just a community service project, but truly a member of the Dayton Baseball team.
