POUGHKEEPSIE, New York – The Marist softball team swept a Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference doubleheader from Rider on Saturday at Gartland Field.
 
Backed by a one-hitter from Calista Phippen and solid contributions up and down the lineup, the Red Foxes won 10-0 in five innings in game one. Ali Milam's walk-off two-run homer capped a three-run seventh in Marist's 7-5 triumph in game two.
