Living in LA, I was naturally rooting for UCLA in the Women’s College World Series – just as I have for the last five old age But this year, they didn’t disappoint.

The tourney began with a series of upset going everyone to wonderment who would emerge as the dominant military group  A number of higher seeded team were ousted by lower seeded team in the first round. ordinal number sixteen HI beat ordinal number Nina from Carolina Missouri, ordinal number cinque UCLA beat ordinal number 4 Florida, ordinal number Captain Hicks Peach State upset the defending title-holder ordinal number troika Washington, and ordinal number XV Tennessee downed ordinal number 10 Arizona.

But in the final game, UCLA hit four more home runs nut path to a 15-9 victory over Grand Canyon State at ASA hall of celebrity bowl in OK City, a win that gave the bruin their 11th national title and their first since 2004.

Pitcher Megan Langenfeld, Andrea Harrison, Julie Burney and Samantha Camuso hit homeruns  as UCLA completed its expanse through a series that included triumph over Florida, HI and Peach State and two against Pacific 10 conference rival Arizona in the best-of-three final.

Langenfeld, a senior from Bakersfield, was selected as the series’ most outstanding player after hit four home runs, drive in IX tally and going 3-0 as a pitcher.

Kelly Inouye-Perez, a former bruin player and assistant, won the national title in her fourth season as UCLA’s head coach.

The 2010 Women’s College World Series also tour into the record books with the highest attendance record ever.

At the determination of the Championship, the final attendance number was 62,562, eclipsing the previous total of 62,463, which was set in 2007 with a three-game title Series.

Congrats to the bruin and the Wildcats!
