Impressive showing last night, gives me confidence in Rowland, they peaked at the right time. No one was going to beat Oklahoma last night. Everyone coming back next year, plus the number one class. The SEC should be ours easily next year and hopefully OU will come down to earth a bit and we get title number 4

The University of Florida softball team wrapped up the 2017 regular season with a pair of wins over North Texas (8-1) and Florida A&M (7-0) at Katie Seashole Pressly Stadium.

The Gators (50-5) finished the regular season with their ninth 50-win season in program history, all of which have come under head coach Tim Walton.

FYI:

Head Coach Tim Walton was awarded SEC Coach of the Year and sophomore Kelly Barnhill was named SEC Pitcher of the Year.

Sophomore Kelly Barnhill (22-1) highlights the list of Florida selections as she earned a spot on the All-SEC First Team and awarded SEC Pitcher of the Year as she has compiled a 0.33 ERA and even better 0.09 ERA in SEC play alone. It is the first SEC Pitcher of the Year award for a Gator since Lauren Haeger in 2015.

0.09 in SEC games? Unreal...

It would be a shame if we don't bring home the hardware from OK City.

Softball team sh*t the bed vs. Ole Miss in the SEC Tourney, losing 2-0.

SEC Softball Tournament: Ole Miss shocks No. 1-ranked Florida, 2-0


KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Florida softball has played the leading role in the SEC’s historical season, and on Thursday the Gators became part of more history.

Ole Miss, the SEC Softball Tournament’s No. 8 seed, shocked No. 1-ranked Florida by a 2-0 count on Thursday.

The Gators are the first No. 1-seed in the 21-year history of the tourney to lose in the first round of the SEC Softball Tournament, and they have only themselves to blame for it, as they didn’t start their No. 1 pitcher against the Rebels.

Ole Miss didn’t make the same mistake, and junior Kaitlin Lee delivered, throwing a complete game shutout and allowing just two hits.

“Kaitlin Lee is unbelievable,” Ole Miss coach Mike Smith said. “She is a superstar and she loves competing for her teammates.

“Hotty Toddy Baby!”

Dylan Stencil delivered a 2-RBI double off Florida senior starter Delanie Gourley in the top of the first inning to give Ole Miss a quick 2-0 lead.

Elantra Cox opened the game with a single for the Rebels, and Kylan Becker followed by reaching base on an error by third baseman Aleshia Ocasio. Two batters later, Stencil delivered the two-out lightning.

“Nobody expected us to win, why not shock the world,” Cox said. “Let’s prove to the world we can do this.”

Gourley lasted five innings, giving up seven hits and those two pivotal runs before Florida brought on ace Kelly Barnhill, the SEC Pitcher of the Year and the nation’s leader in ERA and strikeouts per 7 innings.

Barnhill didn’t allow any hits the final two innings, but the damage had been done.

Ole Miss hadn’t beaten Florida in more than three years before Thursday’s game.

“You can ask anyone of my teammates,” Lee said. “I seed I’m feeling in today … I had every pitch on today.”

MVP: Ole Miss pitcher Kaitlin Lee, a 5-foot-6 junior college transfer, became the Cinderella of the SEC Softball Tournament with her miraculous performance against the nation’s No. 1-ranked team.

The Gators are the nation’s unanimous No. 1 team and won’t fall any lower than No. 2 in the NCAA Softball Tournament seeding.

But the Lady Gator Golf team has lead both rounds of the NCAA Regional with one round remaining tomorrow.

The Gators women's golf team punched their ticket to Sugar Grove, Ill. for the NCAA Championship (May 19-24) on Wednesday.

Florida captured a share of the NCAA Columbus Regional title with South Carolina as both teams shot 22-over (886) for the tournament.

The Gators have now won back-to-back NCAA Regional Championships, while this was just the program's third regional title in their history.
