Title: Alabama Punches Ticket To Women's College World Series

After a marathon win in game one, Alabama was more efficient in game two, defeating Nebraska 2-1 in the second game of the weekend to earn the Super Regional win and punch the Crimson Tide's ninth ticket to the Women's College World Series.

"We knew that it was going to be a battle and it definitely was," said Head Coach Patrick Murphy. "I'm so proud of Jaclyn Traina because she gutted out so many performances over the year. She was much better than yesterday and I think everyone saw that."

The Super Regional win is Alabama's (50-11) ninth in program history and the third for this senior class that includes Traina (23-3), who threw the complete-game victory with just one run off three hits. A first-inning rally provided all the runs that Alabama would need, with Molly Fichtner and Marisa Runyon driving in the all-important runs while Haylie McCleney and Kaila Hunt each earned a pair of hits.

Oklahoma will be tough but I believe Bama can beat them.  Should be a really good tourney.

I thought they had a chance but not a good one.  UK has been getting better the last few years.

This should be a very good tournament as no one team stands out above the rest as the solid favorite.
