The Sooners travel to sunny, balmy, Orlando Florida, for a three game series against the UCF Knights. Weather looks great compared to what we've been playing in recently. Expect to see mostly sunny skies with a slight easterly breeze 5-10 Friday...
Two Oklahoma Sooner Freshmen Softball Players have been included in the Top 25 Watchlist for the 2024 TUCCI/NFCA D1 Freshman of the Year Award that was announced Thursday.
Ella Parker is a DP/1B/OF while Kasidi Pickering is an OF. the two freshman...

Fabulous Freshwomen! They deserve all the accolades! Pickering and Parker does have a certain Ring(s) to it!
It made me reflect on Tiare Jennings frosh season and how amazing it was, too.
There are two weekends of Big 12 Softball left before the Big 12 Tournament that ends the regular season. Here is the current standings in the Big 12:
TEAM - BIG 12 RECORD - STREAK - OVERALL - RS/G - RA/G = Difference ----- RANKINGS
1st -...

Even though the Knghts are ranked 5th in conference right now, I really think they are the 4th best team.
Looking at the stats that OUBeliever provided above, they may be 6th in runs scored/game but they are 4th in runs allowed/game, and I think...
Kierston Deal was named the Big 12 Pitcher of the Week for her two starts in the circle for OU after her two starts against Tulsa and Houston this week.
In the two games, Deal pitched 13. 0 innings, allowing 2 singles, 1 walk, 14 strikeouts for 2...

KD seems to have reached another level lately. Good for her! From what I could parse as to why, it is that she stopped trying so hard to be perfect....and started being a pitcher instead.
- 444 hits (9.65 H/G),
- 246 walks, 17 HB (5.72 H&HB/G)
- 23 ROE (0.5 ROE/G)
Total base runners per game = 15.87 /G
- with 292 LOB (6.36 /G)
- Oklahoma is scoring 8.39...

That all makes sense, '56! Thank you for putting in terms that are easy to understand. All the indicators that positively influence the LOB% favor the Sooners.
It also makes sense that if the other team has only one base runner, and she scores,...
The Oklahoma Sooners (2nd ranked in D1) will host the Houston Cougars at Love's Field this weekend in what hopes to be a 3-game series depending on weather. The weather outlook is windy from the North and temps in the high 50's low 60's with rain...

Very nice recap, as always, and much appreciated.
I believe you had a typo in your top paragraph about the game though, you referred to Deal's complete game shutout for her 19th win. I think it was only her 10th win.
You might check me on this...
I listened to the game on the radio, however, I missed the first three innings. I was glad when I tuned in that the Sooners already had a lead and were holding the Cougars to zero. (The last couple weeks had me a bit anxious to jump in the middle of...

Seems to me that Brito has some of the effective motivational traits that Lyons had, namely her spiritualism. I'm hoping she becomes more of an inspiration in the remaining games of this 2024 season, and all cylinders of the 2024 Sooner softball...
Put on an incredible pitching duel last night that went for 9 innings with the Bruins putting across a run in the top of the ninth and held on to win 1-0.
Taylor Tinsley and NiJaree Canady put on a pitching clinic that was marred only by the...

SCREWED ON THEIR OWN FIELD!
Say it ain't so! Shirley that's a rarity in Norman?!?!?...Sooner football says hello there!
I'm sure that many of you Sooner fans might have already viewed these two Cydney clips on YouTube - kind of like a then and now comparison. It's definitely worth watching them side by side. That million-dollar smile of hers really catches my eye,...
But for Sooner fans that were planning to attend both the Spring Football game and then go to the Softball game afterwards,
The Football game was moved from 1pm to 2:30pm
Those attending both will just...

yes.
As far as i know, the time for the softball game has not been changed.
Taking into account several recent past performances of of common opponents it seems that OU might be in a favorable position to win against OSU in their upcoming series. Although it seems that once these two teams get together you can often times...
Last post
My point, at long last, is that this team this year is unique - they win and they lose for their reasons. That's all I can say and figure out for myself. OU may win a four-peat or not. Either way, this is what the team could do this year.
The Oklahoma Sooners played Tulsa at the Hall of Fame Field in OKC on Tuesday night with Kierston Deal tossing a neat no-hitter with only 2 base runners allowed in the 8-0 six inning run-rule victory by the Sooners. Key hits by the Sooners offense...

First No-Hitter of Kierston Deal's Oklahoma Career
The Oklahoma Sooner Softball Team will host the Tulsa Hurricanes at HOF Field in OKC in a mid-week game at 6 PM. From what I heard today on the Plank Show , this will be a lower bowl only game as the upper level of seats will be closed off.

So, maybe Deal becomes our #2 pitcher???
I love that Deal is starting to hit her stride. I think the rotation stays Maxwell-May-Deal but it is critical to have Deal step up about now in prep for post season. Reminds me a bit of a few different...
I was in Little Rock Ar the other day, on their sports radio I heard that the hogs may flip the Pocola girl (Parker) I don't know if that was for softball or basketball. I don't keep up with recruiting much

You are talking about Allyssa Parker of Pocola that plays Softball and Basketball. She is in the Class of 2025. So she is a Junior in High School.
She was at the OU Showcase this weekend with her other 5 committed Class of 2025 future teammates....
Time permitting, I think I have it this weekend. There are the 'other' series I will be watching. (D1 Softball Rankings are listed.)
SEC:
#7 Florida (9-3) at #16 Missouri (5-7) - Florida needs to win at least 2, probably sweep Missouri this...

Final Entry of the Weekend:
#13 Texas A&M (10-5) at #17 Alabama (6-6) - Life in the SEC has proven to be a challenge for Alabama with one top-rung pitcher and an offense without much power. A&M has surprised and are still in the hunt for the SEC...
I think OU is definitely the strongest team but OSU and Texas are very strong contenders.
I suspect that we will see a lot of Kelley Maxwell in remaining games and in the Big 12 tournament...

I'll be content with us just being in top condition, that is, all 3 phases of our game operating at our best capability, by the time WCWS rolls around.
Thoughts on Kenny Gajewski's comments about coaches salaries, facilities and NIL?
Last post
I think KG is maybe short-sighted on his comments. Not building the stadium will cost them recruits. Can he pay the whole team $25k each? Will another school with better facilities also offer that amount?
The Oklahoma Sooner Softball Team rebounded pretty well with a 7-3 win over BYU on Saturday during a nice sunny day at Love's Field. The win also gave the Sooners another series win in the Big 12 to start a new streak in the Big 12. The team was led...

This game was an improvement over Friday (it had to be!) but it still wasn't the crisp solid game we've come to expect out of this group of players. While there were a few clutch hits here and there, there were several missed opportunities to...
