Utah Utes softball advance to the Women’s College World Series

That last time the Utah Utes softball team advanced to the NCAA Women’s College World Series was in 1994.

That year, the highest grossing movie at the box office was “The Lion King.” The No. 1 song on the Billboard Top 100 at the end of the year was “The Sign” by Ace of Base. Bill Clinton was in his first term as president. O.J. Simpson gripped the world with a high speed chase in his white Ford Bronco.

But the Utes can now look forward to putting the year 2023 on the banner that displays their World Series appearances.

Utah advanced to the College World Series behind a 7-2 win over San Diego State on Sunday afternoon in Game 3 of the Super Regionals at Dumke Family Stadium in front of a record 3,083 fans. The Utes are slated to play Washington in Oklahoma City at a time and day to be determined.

Junior Mariah Lopez pitched five innings. She struck out six batters, walked three and gave up one earned run. She threw 100 pitches before Sarah Ladd relieved her.

Sophie Jacquez, Abby Dayton and Hayley Morris each went 2 of 3. Hally Morris pinch hit and drove in two runs. The Utes as a team tallied 11 hits

Bourbon Street was a short walk away. Families flooded into town. Texas fans, much to Washington’s chagrin, were all over the Huskies’ team hotel, too. This was their time to lock in and focus. They needed to block out distractions, though the midnight fireworks downtown made it hard to get to sleep early. He reminded them they’d been working their whole lives for an opportunity like the one they’d earned. They’d won their past nine games by 10 or fewer points and needed second-half comebacks to win three of them. All of it had carried them to this moment. He told them to be ready. No one was more ready than Penix himself, who connect...
