OKC Spark Opens Inaugural Season on Thursday June 15th

Post by TropicalSooner »

The Okla City Spark open their inaugural season on Thursday, June15th at 7pm with a game against the Vipers. They will play the first few home games at the UCO Softball Complex.
I put together a hasty roster of the Spark players as I know them currently and their anticipated positions:

Chelsea Alexander OF L/R 5.8 55
Jocelyn Alo OF R/R 5.9 78
Rylee Bayless U L/R 5.3 9
Chenise Delce P R/R 5.5 77
Lynnsie Elam C R/R 5.9 22
Donnie Gobourne P R/R 5.9 23
Haley Lee C R/R 5.8 45?
Fa Leilua 1B/OF R/R 5.8 4
Chloe Malau'ulu OF R/R 5.7 14
Michelle MoultrieOF L/R 5.3 16
Keilani Ricketts P L/L 6.2 10
Keely Rochard P R/R 5.8 3
Sydney Sherrill IF L/R 5.7 24
Emily Watson P R/R 5.11 25
Sami Williams MIF R/R 5.8 7
Yvonne Whaley MIF L/R 5.3 26

My thought on where they could possibly play for the Spark:


1B Fa Leilua
2B Yvonne whaley
3B Sydney Sherrill
SS Sami Williams

LF Chloe Malau'ulu
CF Chelsea Alexander
RF Michelle Moultrie

DP Jocelyn Alo

C Lynnsie Elam
C Haley Lee

P Keilani Ricketts
P Chenise Delce
P Keely rochard
P Donnie Gobourne
P Emily Watson

Util Rylee Bayless

I hope I can find some way to follow the games and stats as the season progresses.
In any case, we can talk about our Okla City professional softball team here and follow some former OU players as they go pro!

Go Spark!!

Thanks.....good article..
Yeah...I want to put up a lot of stuff....teams locations....
I was wanting to have something to do with softball during the summer. Last year, we had some on our team play for the Fla Gulf Coast League so I followed that as best I could, but I can't find anyone on our team doing that this year.
I wanted to follow the Spark anyway, so we have that....plus transfer portal buzz.....plus upcoming recruiting for the approx Sep 1 contact time for 2025 HS grads.
I'll try to post what ever I can find on the Spark as I go along.
Hope some others will wander over and join in.
Thanks for your reply!

It never even dawned on me they needed to negiate a contract lol. Just assumed if drafted they played but that nakes sense.



What is their long term plans on where to play?

Hall of Fame Stadium will be their permanent home. But they have to play their first few games up in UCO Edmond because of conflicts I think.
