The ninth-ranked Florida softball team (38-13, 13-11 SEC) clinched its weekend series at No. 19 LSU with a 2-1 victory in 9 innings on Sunday in Baton Rouge. It was a historic win as head coach Tim Walton achieved his 1,000th career Division I victory.

Walton’s milestone makes him the second fastest to reach 1,000 NCAA Division I wins behind Arizona’s Mike Candrea. Walton joins volleyball head coach Mary Wise as the only active coaches with 1,000 wins at UF. 

Senior Cheyenne Lindsey’s home run in the top of the ninth sealed UF’s win over the Tigers (32-19, 11-10 SEC).
