14 Straight and Counting: Washington Softball Just Won't Stop
The Washington Huskies softball team rolled into Ann Arbor on Friday and left with exactly what they came for: another win. A 9-7 victory over Michigan extended their winning streak to 14 straight games, and honestly, this team is playing like they have no intention of losing anytime soon. Coach Heather Tarr's squad is absolutely clicking right now, and the Big Ten better take notice.
Morgan Reimer Does Her Job (Even on a Rough Day)
Look, sophomore ace Morgan Reimer has been carrying this team all season, and Friday wasn't her sharpest outing. The Team Canada standout gave up 5 runs (4 earned) on 8 hits and a walk with 3 strikeouts through 4-plus innings. It was the first game all season where she surrendered more than 2 earned runs. But here's the thing: she still got the win. That's what aces do. Reimer improved to 15-1 on the season before Sophia Ramuno came in to clean up, and Ramuno delivered in a big way. Working 3 innings of relief, she limited the damage to just 2 runs on 3 hits with a walk and 2 strikeouts to earn her first save of the season.
The Bats Show Up When It Matters
Michigan made things interesting, but Washington's offense responded. Left fielder Ava Carroll was absolutely ridiculous at the plate, going 3-for-3 with a walk and reaching base four times total. She drove in 3 runs on a pair of RBI singles. Third baseman Giselle Alvarez chipped in 2 hits, 2 RBIs, and a run scored. Freshman Kaycie Burdick and sophomore Alexis DeBoer both went 2-for-5 with an RBI to round out the offensive performance.
The biggest moment came in the top of the sixth inning when a throwing error from Michigan's third baseman Maddie Erickson with the bases loaded plated two huge runs for Washington, giving them the breathing room they needed down the stretch.
Undefeated in Big Ten Play
With this win, the Huskies improved to 24-6 on the season and stayed perfect in conference play at 7-0. That's the kind of start that has NCAA tournament committees paying attention. Washington and Michigan go back at it Saturday at 11:00 a.m. PT, so this series is far from over. But if Friday's any indication, the Huskies are ready for whatever comes next.
