The Bethune-Cookman University softball season ended Saturday with an 8-0 loss in six innings to Jacksonville in the NCAA Gainesville Regional.

Staving off elimination in the fifth gave the Wildcats' top of the batting order another at bat and All-MEAC Allison Garcia's last collegiate appearance at the plate was a solid double off the left field wall. Garcia led the Wildcats in hitting all four of her playing seasons while registering 83 victories as a pitcher.

Jacksonville (43-16) scored once in the bottom of the sixth to end the game and the right to face defending national champion UCLA in the late Saturday game. The Dolphins also beat the Wildcats (33-26) for the third time this season.

Sarah Sigrest held B-CU to two hits the first five innings, while Kala Ouellet went 3-4 and drove in two runs in the Dolphins' four-run second.

JU capitalized on a B-CU error for four unearned runs in that inning and used a Sarah Simon homer and a two-out rally in the fifth for a 7-0 run.
