Fordham got its lone run in the top of the sixth inning, as
Sebastian Mexico and
Peter DeMaria led off the frame with back-to-back singles. After a couple of pop outs,
Daniel Bucciero laced a double to left center to score Mexico from second.
Mexico and DeMaria each had two hits in the game to lead the Fordham offense, while Bucciero had the RBI-double to go with two walks.
Nolan Hughes (0-1) took the loss, allowing six runs in just over an inning of work.
