ECC Leader Molloy Sweeps Softball Doubleheader

Stratford, Conn.-It was a tough Thursday afternoon on the softball diamond for the University of Bridgeport Purple Knights, as UB dropped both ends of a doubleheader to East Coast Conference leader, Molloy College.  The Lions took game one, 15-1, in five innings, and completed the sweep with a 9-0 win in game two.

Bridgeport is now 11-18 overall and 4-10 in ECC play.  Molloy remains undefeated in conference play at 14-0, and raises its overall mark to 25-6.

Senior outfielder Leona Reyna (San Diego, Calif.) had the Purple Knights lone RBI on the day.

Bridgeport will look to get back in the win column on Saturday afternoon at Dowling.  Action is set to begin at 12 noon on Long Island.  UB's next home action is slated for Easter Monday, April 9 when the C.W. Post Pioneers come to DeLuca Field for a make-up East Coast Conference doubleheader that will begin at 3:00 p.m.
