GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Senior Kaylee Puailoa's pinch-hit, two-run homer with two outs in the seventh lifted No. 16 seed Georgia to a 3-2 win over No. 1 Florida on Friday, giving the Bulldogs a surprise berth in the Women's College World Series.
Georgia trailed 2-1 before Puailoa's walk-off homer over the center-field wall. It was Georgia's second upset win over Florida in the Super Regional.
Chelsea Wilkinson (27-7) earned both wins against the Gators. He pitched a complete game, allowing five hits with one strikeout.
Georgia will make its third WCWS appearance, and its first since 2010, when the tournament begins Thursday in Oklahoma City.
