Ole Miss softball is still fighting.
The Rebels are moving on to the quarterfinal round of the SEC softball tournament after downing 5-seed Tennessee Wednesday afternoon, 4-1. Ole Miss defeated South Carolina in Round 1 and will now look to keep this run going Thursday against 4-seed Texas.
Ole Miss pitchers Emilee Boyer and Kyra Aycock allowed just 4 combined hits and 1 run in the second inning, striking out 4.
Madilynn George drove Kenzie Pickens home to put Ole Miss on the board, lacing a single just under the glove of a Tennessee infielder. George recorded 2 hits on the afternoon and led the team with 2 RBIs. Tenly Grisham was also able to drive in a run of her own, and Ole Miss took a 4-1 lead into the final innings.
From there, Boyer was able to slam the door shut. Here’s a look at the final out:
