BRONX, N.Y. - With just one weekend remaining in Atlantic 10 play, the Fordham Rams close out their non-conference slate on Tuesday afternoon, traveling to Queens for a matchup with the Red Storm of St. John's.

First pitch is scheduled for 3 PM. In addition to following the action via GameTracker, today's contest will also be available to watch via espn3.com

SCOUTING ST. JOHN'S: A perennial Big East power, the Red Storm have been struggling this season, entering today's game with a 14-34-1 record overall. As a team, the Red Storm is hitting just .245 on the season, while St. John's pitching has turned in a 4.02 earned run average.

RAMS ON THE BRINK: Elise Fortier set the Fordham single season home run record in dramatic fashion on Saturday against St. Bonaventure, smacking home runs number 16,17 and 18 to jump her past Jocelyn Dearborn (2011) and Erin Fisher (2010) for the all-time mark. Fortier also joined Beckah Wiggins as the only Ram to ever hit three homers in one contest.

In addition to Fortier's individual mark, the Rams are also one home run shy of setting a new team record for dingers in a season.
