Alabama Softball Dominates LSU in Super Regional Opener

The top-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide softball team began their super regional play with a commanding 7-0 shutout victory over the No. 16 LSU Tigers on Friday. Pitcher Jocelyn Briski was the star of the game, allowing only a leadoff double and nothing more while striking out 11 batters. The Crimson Tide's offense supported Briski's stellar pitching by scoring runs in the first, third, fourth, and fifth innings. This dominant performance puts Alabama (53-7) on the brink of advancing to the Women's College World Series. They need just one more win in the best-of-three series to secure their 16th appearance. LSU now holds a 40-18 record after this opening loss in the regional round.
