Arkansas finally got to the Florida defense, scoring three unearned runs in the fourth inning on its way to a 4-1 victory Friday night in the SEC softball tournament semifinals at Katie Seashole Pressly Stadium in Gainesville, Fla.
The Gators (43-16) were dynamic in the field in the early going, but things fell apart for the tournament hosts in the fourth as Arkansas (43-9) rattled Florida reliever Rylee Trlicek, whose defense allowed the fourth-ranked Razorbacks to score all four of their runs in advancing to today’s tournament championship game against Missouri.
“We got some lucky breaks,” Arkansas coach Courtney Deifel said.
