(AP) --- Taylor Shumaker had three hits and three RBIs --- including a two-run home run in the fifth inning --- and Keagan Rothrock pitched a complete game on Sunday to help Florida beat Georgia 5-2 to win the best-of-three Gainesville Super Regional and clinch a berth in the Women's College World Series. No. 3 seed Florida (48-15) will make its second consecutive trip to the WCWS and its 13th since 2008. Rothrock (16-6) gave up two runs --- one earned --- on four hits with a walk and five strikeouts. Kendra Falby drew a lead-off walk in the first inning, stole second and then scored when Shumaker hit a single up the middle. Ava Brown walked on four consecutive pitches to lead off the fifth inning and scored when Rylee Holtorf hit a two-out two-run homer. Falby followed with a bunt single before Shumaker hit the seventh pitch of the at-bat over the wall in right field to give the Gators a 5-0 lead. Tyler Ellison reached on an error to lead off the seventh and Jaydyn Goodwin followed with a home run that made it 5-2. The game was delayed about an hour in the middle of the fourth due to lightning in the area. Georgia (35-23) beat the Gators 2-1 on Saturday to avoid elimination. ___ AP college sports: https://apnews.com/hub/college-sports
