Arizona softball to face Alabama in Women’s College World Series elimination game

OKLAHOMA CITY — It took a while, but Arizona softball finally knows its opponent for Saturday night’s Women’s College World Series elimination game.

The sixth-seeded Wildcats will be taking on No. 8 Alabama, who run-ruled No. 5 Florida 15-3 earlier in the day to keep its season alive. That game was originally scheduled to begin at 11:30 a.m. PT, but inclement weather pushed back the start time several hours.

Alabama (58-9) and Arizona (48-13) faced each other on Feb. 16 in Tucson. The Crimson Tide won 6-1, thanks in part to four Wildcat errors.

The rematch will commence 30 minutes after the Oklahoma State-Washington game ends.
