COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)
Jefferson City native Kara Daly made it happen when it matters for Mizzou softball in the regular-season finale against No. 12 Arkansas hitting walk-off homers in back-to-back games to get the series victory.
In the final game on Sunday, it was tied up at six runs each and Daly hit a solo shot in the bottom of the seventh for the 7-6 victory. This comes just one day after she hit the walk-off shot in extra innings.
