SERIES HISTORY
Brown has won two of the three games against the Bulldogs this season but is 3-7 in the last 10 matchups. The Bears are looking for their first season series win over Bryant since 2017 when they took three of four.

SCOUTING BROWN (4-16, 1-5 Ivy)

Brown is coming off a tough series at Cornell that saw them win the opener 5-4, drop the middle game 9-6, then fall 13-10 in seven innings in the finale after taking a 20-13 lead in the eighth inning, only to have the score revert back after weather forced the ending of the game while the Bears were still batting in the inning.
Freshman third baseman Christina Butera hit .389 last week (7-for-18) and has moved into fourth in the Ivy League with a .358 batting average.
Junior outfielder Mika Petersen is right behind him in fifth in the league with a .355 average.
Junior DJ Dillehay is the third member of the team hitting over .300 with a .316 average and a team-leading 14 RBIs.
Butera will carry an eight-game hitting streak and a 13-game on-base streak into Tuesday.

SCOUTING BRYANT (11-14-1, 2-4 America East)

The Bulldogs dropped two out of three over the weekend on the road at UMass Lowell, winning Saturday's finale 9-2.
Drew Wyers went 6-for-9 over the weekend for Bryant to improve his season average to .372 with seven extra base hits. He also holds a team-high .483 on-base percentage.
Brandyn Durand (.330) and Gavin Noriega (.290) are both among the team's most productive hitters, tying for the team lead with 26 RBIs.
Durand leads the team with six homers.
