FAYATTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Ashton Lansdell drove in three runs and Mississippi won its first NCAA Super Regional game 9-7 on Friday as fourth seeded Arkansas stranded 13 runners on base.
The start of the game was moved up eight hours to avoid inclement weather. Game 2 in the best-of-3 Fayette Super Regional is Saturday. Neither team has ever advanced to the Women's College World Series.
The Rebels (41-18) struck early as Ashton Binford had a solo home run in the top of the first inning, pushing the team record for homers in a season to 65.
