The No. 3/2 Florida softball team wrapped up its opening weekend with two commanding wins, defeating Georgia Southern 4-0 and USF 8-0 in five innings on Sunday at the USF-Rawlings Invitational. With these victories, the Gators improved to 6-0, with four of their wins coming via the run rule.

Ava Brown and Keagan Rothrock each pitched dominant complete-game shutouts, allowing only two hits each, while the Florida offense exploded for 18 hits, including 11 extra-base hits.
