LSU graduate pitcher Ali Kilponen kept her team in the game long enough until her team’s bats finally provided some relief in the latter stages of Friday’s first game of the Judi Garman Classic. Kilponen (5-0) yielded four hits and threw her third shutout of the season in No. 15 LSU’s 2-0 victory over Michigan.

Michigan Softball's 2023 season kicked off last night with a 2-1 extra innings defeat to USF in Florida, before their slate of weekend games beginning this afternoon. A new season upon us means it's time for another Michigan Softball season preview, which I held off on running until today because I wanted to get a peak at the lineup from last night. The reasoning behind that decision is there is so much uncertainty with this squad, so many new faces and not the least of which being in the dugout. With Carol Hutchins retiring, Bonnie Tholl is beginning her tenure as head coach of Michigan Softball, and she presides over a roster that saw the majority of its batting order depart in the offseason, as well as both pitchers who logged the vast majority of innings. Several new transfers are in as well as a six player recruiting class, so this is going to have a very different feel of a season than a year ago. Today we'll break it all down: The Roster Pitching Where last
