Revolutionaries welcome back alumnae for doubleheader Saturday
GW softball begins the second half of its Atlantic 10 schedule this weekend when it hosts Saint Joseph's for a three-game series at the GW Softball Field.

GW returns to the field this weekend for the first time since March 29 at Fordham. GW's originally scheduled mid-week game at UMBC was canceled as the remainder of the Retrievers season was canceled.
The Revolutionaries enter the back half of the conference schedule in the middle of the Atlantic 10 standings, ranked fifth of nine teams with a 6-6 conference record. GW's remaining schedule features matchups vs. the current top two teams (Saint Joseph's and Loyola Chicago) and the current bottom two teams (Rhode Island and St. Bonaventure) in the conference.
