Why Karen Weekly Knew Tennessee Softball Would Bounce Back in WCWS Elimination Game vs Florida
- On May 30, 2025, the seventh-seeded Tennessee Lady Volunteers defeated third-seeded Florida 11-3 in a run-rule five-inning WCWS elimination game at Devon Park in Oklahoma City.
- Tennessee rebounded from a walk-off loss to Oklahoma the previous night by capitalizing on an early offensive surge and Florida's decision not to play ace pitcher Keagan Rothrock due to a blister injury.
- Tennessee's offense came alive early, putting up seven runs in the opening inning with contributions from every player, highlighted by Gabby Leach's leadoff triple and Alannah Leach's team-high four RBIs, while their pitchers held Florida to just three runs late in the game.
- Coach Karen Weekly commended her team's strong mindset, noting that their positive energy and support for ace pitcher Karlyn Pickens made it impossible to tell they had faced a tough loss the previous night.
- Tennessee's victory kept them alive in the WCWS with a 46-16 record and set up an elimination game on June 1 against the loser of Saturday's Texas Tech-UCLA matchup.
