Looks like the ladies are ready to head home for the summer. One hit today - a bunt by Kristen White. Maybe empty the bench tomorrow?

Alabama softball dropped game two and the weekend series to Tennessee in a 2-0 pitcher's duel Saturday night at Rhoads Stadium.
Alabama (31-14, 8-12 SEC) held Tennessee (37-8, 16-4 SEC) to just two runs but the Crimson Tide only managed one hit off Lady Vol starter Karlyn Pickens (17-5), a sixth-inning bunt single from Kristen White. For the second straight week, freshman Jocelyn Briski (7-3) threw a gem in the circle going 7.0 innings with just the two runs allowed, one earned.
From Head Coach Patrick Murphy
"Jocelyn Briski gave us a great start. She has been excellent over the past few weeks and she gave us a good enough start to win the game tonight. We can't beat a really good team with just one bunt single. Their infield made a couple of great plays to take away potential hits. We can't give an offense like Tennessee extra outs like we did in the second inning because they took full advantage of it and scored. We have to be better in all phases tomorrow. Our offense needs to start to come through in the first and second innings, not the sixth and seventh."

Not sure who the next hire needs to be, but Murphy has made the same mistake that many of coaches do. He’s stayed too long and gotten complacent. He has had plenty of chances to adapt and change. He hasn’t. The game is always evolving. I think it’s best for both parties, to separate. A mutual uncoupling
