After an 8-1 record to finish off the season, the FAU Owls were soaring with momentum heading into the semi-finals round of the AAC tournament against Wichita State, but unfortunately for the Owls they got shocked by a shockers squad who is playing with a whole different level of momentum.
Following a 41 win season capped off with a Regular Season AAC championship, the Owls are one of the top teams in all of college softball. The energy brought by Head Coach Jordan Clark and her staff is infectious, as her team has clearly bought into the culture of winning.
The Buzz was palpable Sunday afternoon at Joan Joyce field, as the Owls took the field with a chance to clinch their first AAC regular season title and first regular season title overall since 2018. Doing what they do best, backed behind a mindset of never giving up, the Owls put up 4 runs in the 6th inning after lulling the Tulsa bats to sleep all day
Tonight was the truest testament to the grit of FAU Softball. After going down 3-0 in the first four innings, it looked like a rough night for the Lady Owls. During the first few innings, FAU battled that deficit, while only recording a single hit (Kamryn Jackson single in the bottom third).
