Dayton adds Sydney Cicchetti

After having their best season in over 10 years, the Dayton Flyers are poised to be even better in 2012. Coach Cara LaPlaca announced the addition of Sydney Cicchetti to Dayton in 2012. Cicchetti is a pitcher who has played for Seward Community College in Kansas for the past two seasons. Cicchetti is said to be a hard thrower and she could really complete the Flyers' staff for next season.

Next year Dayton will feature four pitchers in the circle: Alysha Isaacson, Sarah Wedel, Cicchetti, and Kayla English. Dayton will have the depth in the circle to really challenge for the A10 title and it is clear that this program is moving in the right direction.

Cicchetti is the first Canadian pitcher since Kaila Holtz played at UMass. Holtz pitched for the 2004 Canadian Olympic team and she was named A10 Pitcher of the Year twice in her career. Cicchetti will look to uphold the legacy of Canadian pitchers.

Kelsi Seidlitz and Amanda Daly will not be playing next year for Dayton
