History
Since joining the Atlantic 10 Conference in 1996, Dayton has had minimal success as a program, having failed to win a conference tournament title or make an appearance in the NCAA Division I softball tournament. Since the hiring of current coach Cara Clark, however, the program has found some success. In 2015, the Flyers achieved their best record in program history after finishing the season with a 39-15 record, winning the Atlantic 10 regular season title despite being picked to finish fifth in the conference in preseason standings. In 2023, the program achieved its best season since 2015, finishing the year with a 35-20 record and placing third in conference standings.

The Flyers have won several Atlantic 10 Conference awards. The program has won A-10 Player of the year three times, winning in 2000 with Sara Hatcher, 2015 with Tiffany Ricks, and 2017 with Gabrielle Snyder. The program has won two A-10 Pitcher of the Year awards, winning in 2015 with Kayla English and in 2016 with Manda Cash, and two A-10 Rookie of the Year awards, winning in 2015 with Manda Cash and in 2022 with Emma Schutter. In 2015, Clark was named A-10 Coach of the Year.
