AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Leighann Goode had three hits and drove in two runs, Mac Morgan survived a shaky seventh inning in the circle, and Texas defeated Clemson 6-5 on Saturday night to win the Austin Super Regional.
The Longhorns took two of three games from the Tigers and advanced to the Women's College World Series for the eighth time.
Trailing 6-3 in the top of the seventh inning, Clemson threatened when Julia Knowler blasted a two-run home run with one out. Macey Cintron drew a walk but Morgan induced two groundouts to finish the game.
Goode drove in two runs with a double and Ashton Maloney drove her in with a single to give Texas a 3-0 lead in the second inning.
