GAMEDAY: SOFTBALL CLOSES SEASON AGAINST D'YOUVILLE NEEDING DOUBLEHEADER SWEEP TO CLINCH PLAYOFF SPOT

4/27/2025 8:00:00 AM

Staten Island, NY - The College of Staten Island Softball Team closes the regular season today as they face a pair of must-win games against the D'Youville University Saints. The Dolphins are 18-20 on the year and 6-12 in conference play after losing to Mercy twice on Tuesday at the CSI Softball Complex. The Saints enter the day 18-16 overall and are 8-10 against the conference. The Dolphins split their last doubleheader against D'Youville and will need to win both games today to get even with the Saints in the conference standings. If the Dolphins can win both games, they would secure the final ECC playoff berth by virtue of their record against #1 seed St. Thomas Aquinas. D'Youville needs just one win to reach the postseason, and the Saints will clinch a playoff spot with a victory in either of the two games in today's doubleheader. When the two teams met earlier the season, Sarah Parzych led the Saints to a 1-0 win behind a complete game shutout. In game two, the Dolphins came from behind with a seventh-inning rally to win, 13-11. Following the split earlier this season, the Saints lead the all-time series 11-7. A playoff berth for the Dolphins would be their first as a Division II program. A loss in either game would make it two consecutive years in which the Dolphins have been eliminated from the playoffs with a loss on the final day of the regular season.

First Pitch - 12:00 PM
Location - Staten Island, NY (CSI Softball Complex)
All-Time Series - DYU leads, 11-7
Last Meeting - 4/16/25 (DH): DYU won, 1-0 & CSI won, 13-11
