U-M’s NCAA tournament run under third-year coach Bonnie Stoll came to an end with a disastrous fourth and fifth innings in which Hoehn gave up a combined seven runs in the rematch with UCF, falling 10-8 at McCombs Field in Austin, Texas, in the Austin regional. That followed a 16-4 loss to Texas in which U-M was run-ruled by the overall 6-seed.

Michigan entered Saturday’s NCAA regional matchup against No. 6 overall seed Texas having allowed seven runs during its seven-game win streak. It allowed more than double that against the Longhorns, who belted six home runs in a 16-4 run-rule victory (five innings) to advance to Sunday’s regional final.

The UCF Knights softball season has yet one more game to go, with the hope for two more on Sunday, but they first must beat Michigan tonight.
