Florida softball live score updates in Game 3 of 2024 NCAA Gainesville Super Regional vs Baylor

Ten months of prep and three months of games all come down to Sunday for Florida softball.

The Gators will face Baylor Sunday afternoon in a winner-take-all game three of the Gainesville Super Regionals.

Florida could have avoided this situation, but the Orange and Blue fell 5-2 to the Bears Saturday behind a poor first inning and excellent pitching and defense from BU.

The loss was UF's first since April 27 and ended the team's 12 game win streak.

Now, the team must win Sunday to advance to its 12th Women's College World Series all-time and prevent Baylor from reaching its first since 2017.

History is on the Gators' side. Florida has never lost a Super Regional Game Three at home and is 5-1 all-time.

"This team has a lot left in the tank. We just got away from who we are as Gators," Skylar Wallace said after Saturday's loss. "This game was a game of failure, so we just got to bounce back a little bit better. I think that was a good little shake for us, and knowing that tomorrow we're going to really get after and just trust each other."

Florida (50-13) lost back-to-back games just once this season.
