Former University of Tennessee softball star Monica Abbott allowed two runs, three hits and struck out 10 in the U.S. team’s 6-2 win over the Akron Racers in a warm-up for the Olympics on Tuesday night.

The U.S. improved to 57-1 on its “Bound 4 Beijing” tour.

Abbott (16-0) settled down after giving up a two-run homer to Kristen Butler in the first inning for the Americans, who will play their Olympic opener Aug. 12 against Venezuela.

“Little shaky at the start,” Abbott said. “But we changed some things up and I was able to get into a good rhythm. This was a big game for us, and now we just have to tighten a few things up.”
