Hawaii Upsets UCLA
Okay - you know I had to write about this. I don't have all the details, but I do know that the University of Hawaii softball team has advanced to their regional final with their 3-1 win over UCLA today! The game was tied at one a piece, but in the top of the 8th, UH scored two runs and held off the Bruins in the bottom of the 8th to advance to the LA Regional Championship Game!
Of course, I wasn't home, so I DVR'ed the game, BUT, my husband's boxing program, which has a higher "priority" than my softball in the DVR schedule, cut the game off in the middle of the 6th inning and started recording instead. So I did get to see UH score one of their runs, but wasn't able to watch the rest of the game.
Congratulations to the team and great job Brandi Peiler who drove in all 3 of the Rainbow runs. It's great to see a local girl (and a graduate of my high school alma mater) doing well. Robinson, who got the win on the mound for the University of Hawaii, and Kaulana Gould are also graduates of Kamehameha Schools! Just had to add that in. :)
Anyway - Go Bows! I'll be waiting to hear/see the results of tomorrow's game.

If I didn't have my own ASA tournament to coach, I would be looking for a way to get to the Super Regional right now. Like I said before, the two teams I'm watching are UH and Tennessee because of local connections. They just may be meeting up in the Super Regional. I sure hope so. Tomorrow, we shall see.
