Mitchell homers twice to lead Texas over Florida 3-0 in Women's College World Series' opening game
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Joley Mitchell homered twice and Teagan Kavan allowed just two hits to lead sixth-seeded Texas past No. 3 seed Florida 3-0 on Thursday to open play at the Women's College World Series. Mitchell homered in the second and sixth innings off Florida ace Keagan Rothrock, becoming the first Texas player to hit multiple home runs at the World Series. Texas (52-11) will play the winner of Thursday's game between Oklahoma and Tennessee on Saturday. Florida (48-16) will play the Oklahoma-Tennessee loser on Friday in an elimination game. Back-to-back home runs by Mitchell and Katie Stewart in the sixth ended Rothrock's day. She was pulled after throwing 105 pitches. Three of the five hits she allowed were home runs. Mitchell's first home run traveled 250 feet to left field. The Gators were hitless through three innings against Kavan, who improved to 25-5. Florida finally broke through in the fourth inning when Korbe Otis lined a base hit off Mitchell's glove at first base. Texas led 1-0 in the fifth but threatened against Rothrock, putting runners on first and second with two out. She struck out Reese Atwood looking to end the inning. ___ AP college sports:

Walsh homer, Rothrock 3-hitter carry third seed Florida over Georgia 6-1 in super regional
Associated Press GAINSVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Regan Walsh smashed a three-run home run in the first inning and Keagan Rothrock threw a two-hitter to carry third-seeded Florida to a 6-1 win in the opening game of the Gainesville NCAA Super Regional on Friday. Game 2 in the best-of-3 series is Saturday morning as Florida tries to erase the memory of the last two times the teams met in a super regional, both at Florida. The underdog Bulldogs knocked off the overall top seed in two games in 2016 and blanked the Gators twice in 2021. Walsh's one-out drive, her 14th, went to left field on a 3-2 pitch from Randi Roelling (11-9), who had walked Taylor Shumaker and hit Jocelyn Erickson. That was all Rothrock (15-5) needed. She took a no-hitter into the sixth, facing just one batter over the minimum. Emma Castorri doubled leading off the sixth, went to third on a single by Dallis Goodnight and scored on a throwing error by Erickson, the catcher, on a pickoff attempt. Rothrock struck out seven, walked two and hit one batter. Florida's Ava Brown had a two-run homer, her in seventh in the last 11 games and 11th overall, and Kendra Falby had an RBI double in the fifth inning. ___ AP college sports: in this topic
