The #10/11 Gopher Softball Team is off to the best start in program history. They kept that train moving down the tracks this weekend in going 4-0 at the LSU Tournament to extend their school record winning streak to 18 games. The best victory of the season came Saturday night as Minnesota shut out #12/13 LSU in their home park 3-0.
Minnesota used their pitching depth to breeze through all four games this weekend. Three Gopher starters got victories as Tory Finucane threw a one-hitter to lead the Gophers past Florida Atlantic 4-1, Amber Fiser and Carlie Brandt combined to defeat Illinois State 7-3, and Sara Groenewegen threw a pair of complete game shutouts defeating Troy 2-0, and LSU 3-0.
