Virginia Tech softball: Hokies upset UCLA in Game 1 in NCAA Super Regional

The Virginia Tech Hokies softball team remains on a roll, defeating the No. 2 UCLA Bruins, 7-2, in the NCAA Super Regional on Thursday night in Los Angeles.

The Hokies improve to 37-13 on the season and give UCLA just its fifth loss of the season. The two teams meet again tonight in Game 2.

Virginia Tech junior pitcher Keely Rochard was outstanding again, allowing just two runs to the mighty Bruins. She took a perfect game into the fifth inning and struck out 12 Bruins.

Offensively, freshman Cameron Fagan led the Hokies with three hits.
