🔼 Into The Knight. UCF softball started the NCAA Tournament strong, and by strong we mean making the largest NCAA Tournament comeback win in program history. The Knights took down Auburn 11-6 after going down 2-6 in the third inning. Shannon Doherty, Jasmine Williams, and Sierra Humphreys launched home runs to power the comeback. The Knights moved on to play No. 12 Florida State on Saturday, where they fell 1-5. The nightcap against Auburn went to 12 innings and lasted until 3 a.m. Sarah Willis battled the entire game, throwing all 12 innings and 200 pitches. After four hours of softball, Auburn took the 2-1 win.

🔼 Grand Finale. UCF baseball finished the regular season with a series win at Baylor. The Knights took games one and three for their sixth Big 12 Conference series win of the year. They’ll hold the No. 8 seed in the Big 12 Conference Tournament and will face 5-seed Cincinnati tomorrow at 5 pm.

🔼 Fourth-Place Finish. The rowing team finished the season with a fourth-place finish at the Big 12 Championship. They finished with 72 points, just four shy of third-place. Seyene Oord and Aryann Johnson took home UCF’s first Big 12 All-Conference honors. The II Eight boat took third-place to highlight the day. I Four, I Eight, and III Four finished in fourth.
