#UDSB SWEEPS FORDHAM IN A-10 CLASH

DAYTON, Ohio – The University of Dayton rallied for an important sweep of Fordham University on Sunday afternoon, winning Game One by a 4-1 final and finishing off the sweep with a 2-1, walk-off win at UD Softball Stadium.

The series sweep ensures Dayton a spot in the Atlantic 10 Tournament, and puts the Flyers in first place going into the final weekend of the season.

GAME ONE – Dayton 4 Fordham 1
Scoring Breakdown
Bottom 4th – After three consecutive infield singles, senior Krista Gustafson launched her first career grand slam over the left field fence to put the Flyers up 4-0.
Top 7th – Fordham got on the board with a solo home run in the final frame, but could get no closer than 4-1.

Key Stats
Gustafson's home run was her second of the season, and the senior's second career grand slam.

Sophomore Manda Cash picked up her 10th win of the season by shutting down the A-10's best offense to the tune of one run on three hits while striking out eight.

Cash picked up a single in the game as well, marking her third straight game with a pinch-hit base hit.

Junior Gabrielle Snyder finished the game 3-for-3 with three infield singles.


GAME TWO – Dayton 2 Fordham 1
Scoring Breakdown
Top 1st – A Rams' sacrifice fly made the Flyers pay for a leadoff walk, giving Fordham an early 1-0 lead.
Bottom 7th – Dayton tied up the score at 1-1 on a double by junior Katie Ryan that scored Gabrielle Snyder from second base.
Bottom 7th – On the same play, senior Krista Gustafson was caught in a rundown but collided with a Fordham defender and was awarded home on obstruction.

Key Stats
Senior Emily Froment picked up the win for the Flyers, throwing four and one-third innings of scoreless relief.

All six hits came from the same Flyers, with Snyder, Gustafson and Ryan each turning in 2-for-3 days.

Dayton pitching allowed just two runs on seven hits to the Atlantic 10's best offense in 14 innings. It was the fewest runs scored by Fordham in a conference series this season.
