Re: Regional games of interest

Oregon dispatched their Boston U. opponents in the elimination game by the score of 8-2. OU vs Ducks rematch will be first pitch tomorrow at 2 PM CT. I agree that Deal is OUr likely starter, although I guess that Keeney could get the start, assuming tonight's relief effort didn't traumatize her too ...

Re: OU vs Oregon

Keeney starts at pitching the 7th, and gets blasted. 2 runs quickly score with no outs. Maxwell back in to pitch. 1 out!...then, double play! 6-3 Sooners win. We play somebody tomorrow. I'd be astonished if we didn't get a rematch with the Ducks. Whoever it is, they will have to beat us twice...

Re: 2025 softball recruits.

What kind of injury was it? I would assume that it was to her throwing arm, since she was able to play and swing the bat?

Re: OU vs Oregon

I wonder whose decision it was to pull Maxwell for Keeney, (was it Rocha or Gasso?) - - what with Kelly sailing along with a one hitter game?

I absolutely HATE IT for Karlie, this kind of outing sure won't do anything for her confidence in future relief appearances!

Re: My Thoughts for the Norman Regional for 2024

I haven't seen anywhere that the game between Oregon and Boston will be televised on network TV, so I imagine that it will be streamed on ESPN+. If so, I will probably be watching it! It would be a huge surprise if OU does not cruise through their Regional 3-0, but a really seasoned, talented team l...

Re: OU-BYU in Big 12 tourney May 10

Add 4 runs for OU. Hannah Coor batting with no outs. Coor hits a single up the middle and now we're up 10-0. Lillio batting. She flies out deep, for first out. Bland is batting. Is she related to Bobby (Blue) Bland? She walks. Hodge at bat. Sac fly, and Ludlam comes home for 11-0 Sooners. Error mad...

Re: OU-BYU in Big 12 tourney May 10

Texas beats Baylor 14-3, run-ruled similar to OU vs BYU, in that Baylor got their 3 runs in the top of the 5th to erase the goose egg on the scoreboard. OU has a chance to beat Texas for the Big 12 Championship trophy, UT has the regular season championship. If our pitching is as good as it was toda...

Re: Big 12 Softball Tourney Thoughts: Play-In & Seeded Games W & TH

Yep, the Pokes committed 5 errors, allowing 3 unearned runs. WTG, Pokies!

We will be playing the BYU Coogs at 5PM in tomorrow's game.

Ronnie O'Sullivan, a Snooker Legend!

Way, way back in the day, I used to hang out at the Puritan Billiard Parlor in Ark City, my hometown, and in the late 50s, (or at least in THIS pool hall) there was ONE pool table and 6 snooker tables. Also about 3 or 4 tables where players played dominoes or pitch (with pitch-rocks instead of cards...

Re: The Elephant in the Room

Question for the board: Has it occurred to anyone else what the impact would be/was of Kelly Maxwell having to pitch against her erstwhile teammates? The mental aspect of it? Obviously, there isn't NEARLY the mental aspect of trying to knock the socks off of a teammate who (from their perspective) d...

Re: SOONER bats wake up...

Yeah, WONDERFUL feeling seeing those bats wake up! I really thought that the OU coaching staff had out thought themselves by bringing Deal in for the 6th inning, who promptly loaded the bases, then when Karlie re-entered, giving up the tying 2RBI single (although those 2 runs were charged to Kiersto...

Re: Sooners drop Game #2 of Bedlam 6-2 after leading 2-1 thru 5 inn

OUBeliever56: to your point about the two reviews that went against OU, both seemingly open-and-shut in OU's favor, what can you say? We all saw the replays: Boone's foot clearly beat the ball to the fielder's mitt! Had the call gone to OU, we would have had Hansen at the plate with the bases loaded...

Re: Bedlam Game #2

Can someone tell me why Sanders is still starting? I'll try: She is probably our best 1st baseman, excellent fielder, great at stretching and digging the throws out of the dirt. Oh, and while her batting average, like some other of her teammates, has slumped of late, she is always a threat to go ya...
