Alabama Softball

The Crimson Tide enter this week's tournament as the No. 3 seed behind the regular season champions Florida Gators and the runners-up Arkansas Razorbacks. Alabama will take on the winner of Kentucky and Georgia in the quarterfinals on Thursday in the last time slot of the day.

In the fourth inning, Alabama’s offense really exploded. Five singles, a double and a walk gave the Crimson Tide a six-run inning to secure its series win.

Elissa Brown hit a walk-off single in the fifth and Montana Fouts held the Rebels to just two hits.

Alabama sophomore infielder Savannah Woodard was named SEC Softball Newcomer of the Week by the conference this week. The award was created this season specifically for sophomores who had their 2020 seasons cut short due to COVID-19.

The junior appeared in all three games this past week. She pitched a complete-game win and closed out two games to add two saves to her resume.

Savannah Woodard secured the game for Alabama with a two-run inside-the-park home run.

An offensive first inning and Lexi Kilfoyl’s first career home run secured the game for Alabama.

The Alabama Crimson Tide softball team (34-7) defeated the Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles (20-21) 6-3 tonight in Rhoads Stadium. The win puts the recent Florida series officially in the rearview mirror and gives Alabama momentum as the team prepares to close the SEC regular season.

Montana Fouts started in the circle for the Crimson Tide to close out the series after opening on Friday.

A Florida grand slam in the top of the sixth secured the Gator's win. This is Alabama’s second SEC series loss this season.
