ORLANDO – UCF dialed up eight hits and eight RBIs to defeat Clemson 8-0 in five innings Saturday afternoon at the UCF Softball Complex. With the win, the Knights improved to 3-0 on the season while Clemson fell to 1-3.
UCF took the lead after recording three hits in the bottom of the second, including a triple that grazed the third base chalk and rolled deep into the corner of left field. Later in the third, a Knights single up the middle scored two more runs before Clemson freshman right-handed pitcher Emma Whitfield stepped into the circle to relieve redshirt freshman Logan Caymol.
