The Huskies are 2-0 against Alabama this season, but the Crimson Tide has eliminated UW from the NCAA softball tournament twice in the last three years

The Washington and Alabama softball teams have become intimately familiar with each other in recent years, splitting the eight games they’ve played in the past four seasons.

That history sets up an intriguing matchup this weekend as the two teams face off again in the NCAA softball Super Regional at Husky Softball Stadium, with a berth to the Women’s College World Series on the line.

The No. 5 Huskies (47-8) hold the edge over Alabama this year, having beaten the 12th-ranked Crimson Tide twice in the regular season.
