You know what is hard to do in softball, beat a team whose pitcher throws a no hitter. Things looked good in the first inning. UT pitcher, Monica Abbott, walked three out of the first four batters. We would go on to strand all three and only get one other batter on base. The lack of production was not due to any lack of confidence in our coaching staff, Jo "never thought for a second we wouldn't win the game, that we wouldn't get more chances, that we wouldn't get a timely hit, that we wouldn't be celebrating after the game. I thought all of those things were going to happen for us." Amanda Scarborough did her best to keep us in the game. Scarborough had a shutout going into the final inning when the Vols were able to score two and get the W.

Thankfully the WS is not single elimination. We will face Baylor on Saturday.
