Post by: pmull on March 22, 2011, 08:59:01 PM
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - Alabama returned to the top of the softball world as it claimed the number one spot in both polls released Tuesday. The Tide nabbed 16 of the 20 first place votes in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll and 24 of the 30 votes in the USA Today/NFCA poll.

The top two teams in the nation squared off over the weekend with then-No. 2 Alabama sweeping then-No.1 Georgia in three games, leading Alabama (29-1, 5-0 SEC) to the No. 1 ranking in the ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 Poll, the Amateur Softball Association (ASA) of America announced today. Alabama was the top ranked team in week three and has been the runner-up in three of the remaining five polls this season.

Along with the 3-0 sweep, Alabama beat then-No. 24 Auburn, (6-1, 8-2), for an undefeated 5-0 SEC weekend. Georgia (23-4, 5-3 SEC) fell three spots to No. 4 after a 2-3 week which included a 2-0 record over South Carolina.

Looks like they split a double header with UTk yesterday. Won the 1st 9-5 and lost the 2nd 4-1.
