I have a feeling that we will see each other again. It will be hard but I have seen crazier things happen. You guys have been hot all year long and only have 12 losses on the year. This is a solid regional with a lot of very good teams.

I had a really good view of this play and agree with you ... it is too bad that Hanafin was the winning run because it was a bad call. Hubbard made a beautiful throw from center field and Cormier applied the tag in time well on the first base side of second. Hanafin was out and the ump simply missed the call.
Of course, the Lady Cajuns had plenty of chances to secure breathing room (beginning in the first inning) and it took another error with two outs for Hanafin to score the go-head run in the 6th ... on another controversial play I might add. But I could see that call at home plate going either way. It was the call at second that was egregious.
It was interesting that Baylor replayed the play at home on the scoreboard ... but did not replay the play at second. The NCAA does not allow replays in baseball. As for softball, I do not know ... but if they do not, they certainly should not have shown the replay at home.

The play at home could have gone either way, it was extremely close and the photos I've seen show her beating the tag.
The call at second was just baffling though... completely changed the game.
