Softball Series at Colgate Delayed

Lafayette heads into the final two weeks of the season

SCHEDULE UPDATE
Potential snow (yes, in April) has forced a re-shuffling of the weekend schedule at Colgate. The teams are not scheduled to play Saturday. Lafayette and Colgate will play a single game on Sunday at 1 p.m. and then a doubleheader on Monday at 1 p.m. 

Match-Up
Lafayette ventures to Colgate (22-22, 5-7) for a three-game Patriot League series. The Raiders have won four straight games, taking the last two games from Holy Cross before sweeping Siena in a doubleheader on Wednesday. 

On the Web
Colgate is set to broadcast all three games of the series this weekend on the Patriot League Network.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
Last Time Out
Erin Scott connected for a two-out single in the top of the ninth inning to propel Lafayette to a 3-2 win over Fairleigh Dickinson in game one of a Wednesday non-league doubleheader. In game two, FDU scored a pair of runs in the sixth inning to break open a one-run game and capture a 4-2 final.
