OXFORD, Miss. -- Another stellar performance from Kaitlin Lee, and a string of three extra-base hits lifted No. 13 Ole Miss to a 2-0 shutout over No. 22 Arizona State Saturday afternoon in the winner's bracket game of the NCAA Oxford Regional.
With the victory, the Rebels (42-18) secure a spot in Sunday's regional finale, needing just one win to claim the regional championship. Arizona State (31-21) drops into the elimination game at 6:30 p.m., to face the winner of North Carolina/Southern Illinois.
Both the Rebels and Sun Devils traded fairly quiet innings all afternoon long, as storms skirted the Oxford area and allowed for perfect weather into the afternoon.
