Game Notes
TAMPA, Feb. 20, 2020 – The University of South Florida softball team returns home to host No. 12/12 Tennessee and FIU during the USF Invitational after a trip across the Bay last weekend.
The Bulls (RV) are coming off a 2-3 showing against five ranked opponents at the St. Pete/Clearwater Elite Invitational, including back-to-back wins over No. 17/19 Texas Tech and No. 15 Georgia.
Sophomore Camryn Dolby (Round Hill, Va.) earned USF's first complete-game shutout in a 3-0 victory over Texas Tech. The Bulls (2-7) benefitted from a three-run home run from Brooke Hartman (Port Orange, Fla.) in the win.
Junior Georgina Corrick was not only the winning pitcher against Georgia, but also hit the game-winning two-run homer, the first of her career. She also pitched her first shutout of the season, tallying seven shutdown innings with only three hits allowed, while also striking out nine.
Hartman had an inside-the-park home run against No. 3/2 UCLA, giving her two homers during the Invitational. AnaMarie Bruni (Schwenksville, Pa.) also pushed her hitting streak up to 10 games over the weekend.
