Pitching often makes the difference in softball and in the opening game of the 2017 NCAA softball tournament, it was the difference between Michigan softball and Fresno State.
Megan Betsa, the ace for Michigan softball, was stellar. She tossed a complete game for the Wolverines and allowed just one run in the 3-1 victory. She struck out 13 batters total in the win as the Wolverines are 1-0 in the Seattle Regional.

The game was a pitcher’s duel throughout, but Wolverines grabbed the early lead.
