🔼 Cat Scratch Fever. Five weeks into the 2025 season and the UCF softball program has already piled up four ranked wins.

This weekend, the Black and Gold added to that resume with some history as the Knights picked up the highest ranked series victory in program history, taking two of three at #4 Arizona.

UCF started the weekend with a convincing 9-3 victory over the Wildcats and followed it up with a dramatic 5-4 thriller on Saturday to clinch the series, earning the seventh all-time top four win in program’s history.

🔼 Hawk Hunting. The Knights did a little hawk hunting at home this weekend.

UCF rolled to a series sweep of visiting Monmouth to extend their win streak to six as the Black and Gold have now outscored its past six opponents by a tally of 80-10.

The weekend kicked off with a rocket show as the Knights rolled to a 17-1 Friday night win and continued on Saturday with an 18-3 throttling. The pitching took over on Sunday with yet another shutout, 8-0 to take the full series sweep.

🔼 Two-For-One Special. The resume keeps getting longer and longer for this year’s UCF women’s tennis squad.

The Knights extended their win streak to five straight with two ranked victories over the weekend, including a decisive 5-2 win over #15 Baylor to improve to 4-0 in league play.

On Sunday, UCF capped it off with a 4-1 win over #40 TCU to push their 2025 record to 12-1.
