TALLAHASSEE - If being a senior leader means sacrificing yourself for the team, hitting a home run and remmbering to bring your jersey on road trips, then Teddy Foster wasn't just 2 for 3 in the batter's box on Tuesday.

The Santa Fe College softball team claimed both games in its doubleheader for the fifth consecutive time Saturday, this time against Palm Beach Community College.

The Gators went nine innings before scoring a run in their first game Saturday. In the first inning of their next game, Francesca Enea put 2 runs on the board with one swing.

Alabama knows how difficult it is to defeat the No. 21 UF women's tennis team. After all, the No. 26 Red Tide has lost all 34 meetings between the two, including Friday's 4-1 victory in favor of the Gators.
With everything it has endured this spring, there is one constant: The No. 21 UF women's tennis team wins at home. Every time.
If earning the team's first Southeastern Conference road victory against Vanderbilt was learning to walk, then a series win in Auburn this weekend will be learning to run for UF.
I don't know. And that's not because I'm just of average intelligence. You don't know either, and there's a good chance you're smarter than I am.
