Morgan State Softball To Visit Rider In Non-Conference Play On Tuesday

BALTIMORE, Md. (April 10, 2023)--Morgan State will take its four-game winning streak on the road, when it travels to Lawrenceville, N.J. to face Rider in a non-conference doubleheader on Tuesday, April 11. First pitch is at 2 p.m. at Herb & Joan Young Field. Both contests will air live on ESPN+ and can be heard on the radio at HSRN.com
 
Last season Morgan State swept the doubleheader in Baltimore, defeating Rider by identical 5-1 scores to improve to 5-0 all-time against the Broncs.
 
Morgan State (20-13, 10-1 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) is coming off a doubleheader sweep of league foe Delaware State over the weekend. Winners of 11 of their last 13 games, the Lady Bears outscored Delaware State, 18-1 in the three-game series. Morgan has now recorded six shutout victories in their 11 conference contests.
