Elimination Saturday awaits the 2-seed Florida Gators softball team after a dramatic loss to the 3-seed UCLA Bruins in the late game of the Women’s College World Series Friday night.
Power hitting, power pitching and a little bit of controversy combined for a crazy game that ended with the Bruins on top 6-5.
Untouchable is a strong word, but it might be the best word to describe Kelly Barnhill’s performance in the first innings of the game. One after another, UCLA’s first eight batters all fell victim to the strikeout and Barnhill remained perfect through three innings of play.
