A late rally came up just short as Arizona softball fell to No. 1 Florida State 4-3 on Sunday afternoon. The Wildcats dropped the series two games to one.
A handful of self-inflicted errors ultimately came back to haunt Arizona on a breezy day at Hillenbrand Stadium.
Leading 3-1 through four innings, Arizona (18-7) looked in command for much of the game until Florida State’s Dani Morgan hit a three-run homer to give the Seminoles the lead.
Alyssa Denham started the game for the Wildcats and was nearly flawless until the fifth inning, when she gave up a crucial one-out walk despite getting ahead in the count 0-2 on FSU’s Sydney Sherrill.
