BOSTON – Resuming non-conference play, the Boston University softball team will travel to UMass on Thursday with the first pitch of the doubleheader slated for 2 p.m. The two teams were originally scheduled to play in Boston, but the contests were moved to Amherst due to the extensive rainfall in the area.
