The Alabama softball team dominated its Sunday twinbill against Stillman College at Rhoads Stadium. The Crimson Tide, closing the portion of its fall schedule that was set to be played at Rhoads Stadium, won both games by a combined score of 27-3.

Game one was won by a score of 15-2, while the encore featured a 12-1 triumph for the home team. Stillman was actually able to get on the board first in both contests, but it was for naught. The Alabama offense sealed the deal from there on out, scoring nine unanswered runs in game one and 12 in game two.

Alabama has one final game on the docket this fall: a tilt opposite Jacksonville State next Sunday in Oxford, Ala.
