The drought is over.
Arizona softball eased by Ole Miss 9-1 on Saturday to win the Tucson Super Regional and advance to its first Women’s College World Series since 2010.
UA’s first opponent will be the winner of the Seattle Regional, either No. 3 seed Washington or No. 14 Kentucky. Washington swept three games from the Wildcats in Tucson earlier this month.
The Wildcats, who remain unbeaten in the postseason, never trailed Saturday and took an early lead when Dejah Mulipola clubbed an opposite field homer to right in the second.
Ole Miss matched it in the third with a deep blast by Autumn Gillespie, but it was all Arizona (47-12) from there.
