Courtsy Washington

Forgive a trip down memory lane, but coming off a week in which 32 college teams played more than 80 games in this year's Mary Nutter Classic, there still hasn't been a better game played in softball's most delightfully gluttonous smorgasbord than when Washington and Florida played in 2009.

Rather than make matters complicated that day, Washington coach Heather Tarr and Florida coach Tim Walton handed the ball to their respective aces and essentially told them to lock up and turn off the lights when done. So for nine innings, Washington's Danielle Lawrie and Florida's Stacey Nelson dueled until finally the Huskies scraped together a run and a 1-0 win.
