The Gators were 5-0 in tournament play. Pitcher Quinten Rawls won two games, including getting the decision in the Gators’ 15-4 victory in the championship game. Jeff Chaillou also won two games, allowing one run in eight innings. Skyler Shatto closed out three of the wins for his first saves of the season.
