| Softball Beats Missouri 7-1, Advances to World Series TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - A third-inning grand slam and stingy pitching performance from Charlotte Morgan was all Alabama needed to complete a two-game sweep of Missouri Saturday, as the Alabama Softball team downed the Tigers 7-1 at the Alabama Softball Complex. The sweep makes Alabama the NCAA Tuscaloosa Super Regional champion and sends the Crimson Tide to its fifth Women's College World Series. "That was a very hard fought two games," said Alabama coach Patrick Murphy. "Give credit to Missouri for coming out and playing extremely well. It was much closer than the score indicated." Alabama (56-6), which won game one of the Super Regional Friday night 6-1, scored seven runs on five hits while Missouri (47-17) managed nine hits but only one run. The bulk of Alabama's offense came in the third inning when, with two outs, Whitney Larsen drew a walk, Brittany Rogers singled, and Jordan Praytor walked to load the bases. Morgan, batting third in the lineup, then sent a 2-2 pitch from Missouri's Jen Bruck over the right field wall to put the Tide up 4-0. Full Story
