The newcomer navigated a perfect fourth place with her first strike of the evening, and after deserving the first one out of the fifth, Ball-Malone decided to experience the competition.

The high-ranking right-hander Kaitlyn Felton was next, who entered the competition ranking among the big 12 conference leaders in a variety of categories, including solo shuts (2, 1), Sieges (6, T-1) and ERA (0.79, 3rd).

Felton worked for a defensive mistake to see UCF safely through the fifth and made a few singles in the sixth.

The owls made one last comeback in the last frame and brought two other runners to the base with two outs, but Felton was unimpressed and calmly forced a Groundout to Ashleigh Griffin at the first basis to complete the matters.

We talk about that all the time. We know that we are good enough to compete with these teams, and now we are showing everyone else. “
