Riley Zache C/UT - RH B/T
South Bend, IN (St. Joe High) - Tennessee MOJO - Ramsey/Fisher
I found this interesting. Riley and Berkley actually live in Niles, MI, just across the border from South Bend. They actually cross state lines to go to high...
This commitment is a big one for the Sooners from the 2023 Class. The Sooners have been recruiting her strongly for probably two years when they could actually make contact due to COVID. A...

She seems very calm and relaxed, mature beyond her age. Could be a leader, a captain type. At least at this point.
Okay, going into 4th inning, we're up 5-0. Deal still pitching.. First batter pops out to Coleman. 2nd batter grounds out Brito to first base. What is the typical velocity on a fast ball for Deal? Third batter walks. 4th batter flies out to...

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,...
In their Quarter-Finals game at Devon-Hall of Fame Park in OKC, the Oklahoma Sooners won over the Kansas Jayhawk 10-1 in a 5 inning run-rule win. The Oklahoma Sooner offense showed up in the game as OU collected 10 hits in 4 innings along with 4...

I also think Deal gets the call today. And for whatever reason, it does seem that May is better than Deal coming out of the pen. But she's done that for years now, with a good deal of success. I could also see SJ getting a few pitches in if...
In the three other games of the Big 12 Quarterfinals on Thursday, there was one upset (BYU), one run-rule win (Texas) and one 1-run win (Baylor) outside of the Sooner win in the second run-rule win of the quarterfinals.
In the first game of the...

Oklahoma Sooner Softball Player, Ella Parker, has been selected as on of the Top 10 Division 1 players who have advanced in the selection of the 2024 TUCCI/NFCA DIVISION I FRESHMAN OF THE YEAR Award. The narrowing of the Top 25 players down to the...

Arizona SMOTHERED Washington, and UCLA 6-0 over ASU!
I'm not a softball expert by any means but here is my theory:
Obviously, Jordy leaving left us in a huge bind as far as pitching goes. I know you recruit pitchers every year just like you should recruit quarterbacks every year. But when you have...

I appreciate the time and effort that you spent to develop the stats and to post them. Many kudos to you.
What you stats indicate are that the two series against Texas and Oklahoma State are statistical anomalies. They just happened to happened...
...hopefully portending a little spark heading to the post season.
7-2 bottom of the 6th. :cool:

I think our 2 freshmen might be our best players right now
They're confident, young and hungry for success, not worried about their entering the Brave New World, and not feeling like they have done it all, either...and yes, talented!
The Oklahoma Sooner Softball team rebounded on Sunday to win the final game of the series with Oklahoma State with a 8-2 win over the Cowgirls. the story of the game was Karlie Keeney. Keeney was the surprise starter, but it did make sense as she...

I also want to say that I thought Kasidi Pickering 2-run HR to LC in the bottom of the 4th inning was also a key hit in the game. It broke the drought of 0 HRs of the series and was hit on a 3-2 count with one out.

Would love to see BYU knock out OSU and have it end up with OU versus texas in the finals. I think we could beat both OSU and texas, and having just played OSU we may be really ready to take them again, but I would like to avoid it if at all...
Some if not many of our 4th and 5th year players production has recently been trending down. I'm sure film and familiarity contributes to this, as well as better defensive positioning, perhaps.
But the thing I'm really wondering about is if they...
The announcers pointed out how many walks the team has had this year. The most in D-1 and I wonder if all the walks are actually hurting the team. There has been several times our batters have taken the 3-0 pitch for a strike. It looks like the...

Almost nobody swings at a 3-0 pitch. It's not just us. In fact, I can't remember the last time that I saw anybody in softball swing at a 3-0 pitch. Blame analytics all you want, but a pitcher who can't throw a strike in the first three pitches isn't...
I'm afraid we may end up on the wrong side of the transfer portal after this season. Teams will come hard for Pickering and Parker. I'll be surprised if bland sticks around. It will be interesting to see what happens.

I think any speculation about anyone transferring out of the Sooner program is no more than idle chatter at this point. With 11 players returning next year (1 that has not played an inning due to injuries and a redshirt, NellieMac) the only three...
