ADRIAN, Mich. – Davenport added two more wins to their season total after sweeping Siena Heights today. The Panthers shut out the Saints in the first game 8-0 and took a 10-3 win in the second game. The pitching staff for Davenport was stellar, as the Saints only scored three runs over the two games. After the two conference wins, Davenport remains in second place and only a half-game back from first place in the Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference. DU will host first place Madonna in a key doubleheader on Wednesday at home beginning at 3:30 p.m.
