TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- The J-Train hasn't slowed down since she helped lead Alabama to its first softball national championship.

Traina, the SEC Pitcher of the Year who notched a program-record 42 wins in 2012, pitched four shutout innings and allowed just one hit Monday en route to the first international victory of her career. It came on a big night, as Team USA wrapped up a World Cup of Softball championship with a 3-0 victory over Australia in Oklahoma City.
