Madness vibes in the middle of May? Well, you can now. That’s because a tremendous Cinderella story is shaping up in the world of college softball. In fact, something happened on Sunday that had never happened before in NCAA Division I women’s softball history.

Kelsey Plum poured in 37 points in her first game with the Los Angeles Sparks to set a new record for the most points in a season opener in league history. The New York Liberty received their rings and beat the Las Vegas Aces behind Natasha Cloud, who made her case as the most important offseason acquisition.

The Lions won 12 straight games to end the regular season and captured the Bay Valley Athletic League title with ease as they outscored their league opponents 131-10 across 10 games. Liberty (20-4, 10-0) also has non-league wins over Granada, College Park, Castro Valley, Archbishop Mitty and California.

But that moment was an example of who Cloud is and why it was so easy for the Liberty to embrace her.
