Mizzou Softball pulled off its second upset over the nation’s top-ranked team in the span of a month on Friday, defeating #1 Texas A&M 9-1 in five innings.
The Tigers previously beat top-ranked Oklahoma 3-1 on March 22. Mizzou’s offense led the charge with four home runs that accounted for seven of the team’s nine runs.
“We know their offense is really potent, so they could come back with one swing of the bat,” catcher Julia Crenshaw said. “So let’s just keep putting the pressure on them, keep getting those insurance runs. We did, and we ended up getting enough where we could cut the game a little short.
