Morganne Flores missed the Huskies’ run to the College Softball World Series championship round last season, having suffered a torn ACL that forced her to miss the entire season.
Healthy again, the junior catcher is willing to do whatever she can to give her team another shot at winning a title.
On Saturday afternoon, that meant hitting two-run homers in her first two at-bats, leading the Huskies to a 6-1 victory over Mississippi State at Husky Softball Stadium and into the championship of the regional.
“It was a good game, and we played the game right,” said UW coach Heather Tarr.
