TUCSON (AZ) - The Delaware Valley College softball team fell to 0-4 on the season with a pair of losses on Saturday. The Aggies dropped a 6-3 decision to Babson College and followed with a 2-1 setback to Augsburg.

Delaware Valley trailed 4-0 to Babson (1-3) before it struck for three runs in the sixth. Brittany Stockert drove a run in with a single and Kelly Andrews followed with an RBI double. Nicole Dorney then knocked in pinch runner Courtney Case with a single to make it a 4-3 ballgame.

However, Babson responded with two runs in its hald of the inning, both on Aggie errors, to take a 6-3 advantage. Delaware Valley then managed just one hit in the seventh to end the game. The three hits in the sixth and one in the seventh were all the Aggies managed in the contest. Kirstyn Ruhling suffered the loss after giving up four runs (three earned) in four innings of work.

In the Augsburg contest, Delaware Valley was once again down a run heading into the sixth inning when Andrews and Dorney had back-to-back doubles to tie the game. Augsburg (3-7) regained the lead in the bottom of the stanza on a Delaware Valley miscue and the Aggies went down in order in the seventh. Jennifer Bummer took the loss despite not giving up an earned run and just four hits while fanning eight.
