BYU softball: season ends at Columbia Regional

After defeating Louisville, 6-4, behind five RBIs from Libby Sugg to extend the team's season, BYU softball lost 2-0 to Nebraska in the NCAA Columbia Regional.

“I'm proud of the way our team fought today after a difficult night last night," BYU head coach Gordon Eakin said. "I thought they came out and showed great character today. They played hard."

BYU finishes the 2016 campaign with a 36-20 record after making it to the NCAA regionals for the 12th-straight time.

McKenna Bull and Olivia Sanchez split the pitching duty, throwing five and three strikeouts, respectively. Sugg led the effort from the plate, hitting five RBIs on two hits in the first game, three of the RBIs coming from her 18th home run.
