Taylor McQuillin steps in to send Arizona Wildcats softball to super regionals

Taylor McQuillin was almost perfect in relief Sunday, and as a result the Arizona Wildcats are headed to the super regionals.

Mississippi State hit three early solo homers off UA starter Alyssa Denham, but ace McQuillin came to the rescue for the No. 14-seeded Wildcats (42-14), who won 4-3 over the Bulldogs.

Arizona will next play either No. 3 UCLA or Cal State Fullerton in the NCAA Super Regionals. The winner of that best-of-three series will advance to the Women's College World Series.

“Coming in, I think my goal was just to keep runs off the board,” McQuillin said.
