UDub Looks to Gator Done
There is a Seattle team in a championship series [insert twenty minutes of laughter]. No really [insert two hours of stunned silence].
The University of Washington softball team, led by known Canadian Danielle Lawrie, will face the perennial NCAA Champions in everything University of Florida Gators in a best two-out-of-three series starting tonight.
Yesterday the Huskies beat Georgia on the second try, and the Gators beat Alabama on a walk off grand slam, holy crap.
The Husky softball team has been a consistent power since its inception in the 1990s, making the championship game in 1996 and 1998--however, they have never won the title.
UDub won a Volleyball championship in 2005, a Cross Country National championship in 2008, and the 1960 football championship in 2007.
Game 1 Tonight, Game 2 Tuesday, and Game 3 (if necessary) Wednesday. All games are at 5 p.m. on ESPN 2.
UPDATE: Thanks to the commenters for pointing out that the Huskies have won several rowing championships, and of course the 1991 football championship which will be turning twenty in a couple years [insert two more hours of stunned silence].
