Alabama softball is riding high after a series victory over Oklahoma at home on Monday, but it will be a quick turnaround for the No. 17 Crimson Tide as it travels to No. 7 Florida this weekend for a three game-series with the Gators.

Florida is also coming off a series win, but did lose the series finale at Ole Miss on Sunday.

There will be a couple familiar faces in the Florida dugout this weekend. Longtime Alabama pitching coach Stephanie VanBrakle Prothro is now in her first season with the Gators in that same role after a brief head coaching stint at Memphis.

Former Alabama infielder Kenleigh Cahalan is also in her first season at Florida, hitting .331 with 10 home runs, 43 RBIs and nine errors in the field.

Because it is Easter weekend, the two teams agreed to not play on Sunday, and the series will be held from Thursday to Saturday. Here's what you need to know about the Crimson Tide's matchup with the Gators:
