Fordham cruised to a 6-2 victory over #3 Massachusetts in the morning matinee and then gained revenge over the #5 Hawks with two straight wins, first a 4-3 extra-inning walk-off victory before a more comfortable 5-1 result, to win the Atlantic 10 Conference Championship for a fourth straight year. The Rams improve to 39-19 on the season with the three wins.
