Baylor’s opening weekend ended in Tucson with a loss on Feb. 11. The Lady Bears were determined not to end their season against the Wildcats in the same way.
Baylor battled back with three runs in the seventh inning off Arizona sophomore pitcher Taylor McQuillin capped off by the go-ahead three-run home run by freshman infielder Shelby McGlaun as No. 15 Baylor holds on to survive and upset No. 2 Arizona 6-5 to punch its ticket to the 2017 Women’s College World Series.
Baylor head coach Glenn Moore said the team’s mentality never changed when it fell behind and its toughness is what makes this team special.
