A year ago this week, Julia Cottrill was a Florida Gator cheering for Oklahoma State at the Women’s College World Series.<\/p>\n
On Saturday night, she was an Oklahoma State Cowgirl, helping beat Florida at the WCWS.<\/p>\n
Cottrill had three hits, scored a run and drove in another as the seventh-seeded Cowgirls defeated 14th-seeded Florida 2-0 in winner’s bracket play at USA Softball Hall of Fame Stadium.<\/p>\n
The win sends OSU (48-12) to Monday’s semifinal round, needing just one win to lock up a spot in the championship series for the first time in school history. <\/p>\n
Cottrill, making just her third start in nine postseason games, singled and scored in the third inning, then drove in Sydney Pennington with a single in the fourth to put the Cowgirls up 2-0. She nearly added to the lead again in the bottom of the sixth, driving a double off the center field wall that was a foot away from clearing the fence. <\/p>\n
