There are one (or two) more games left to determine who will play Oklahoma in the final series of the 2023 Women’s College World Series.
On one bench we have the Tennessee Lady Volunteers (51-9), who need two wins to set up a rematch against Oklahoma. The Lady Vols have already faced the Sooners, a team that handed them their first postseason loss: a 9-0 mercy rule demolition that saw Tennessee muster just one hit. They rallied behind ace Ashley Rogers on Sunday and escaped with a win, toppling Oklahoma State.
In the other dugout is a group of the Florida State Seminoles (57-9) who defeated Washington, 3-1, on Saturday night with a Josie Muffley’s double web jewel play to end the game. They’ve jumped to a 2-0 start in the Women’s College World Series, which is why they have the upper hand going into tonight’s contest.
If the Lady Vols manage to steal Game 1, there will be another game 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first matchup. That contest would then determine which team advances.
However, the ‘Noles have only lost one game in their last 24, illustrating the uphill battle for Rocky Top.
