SOFT Texas 6-5
Oklahoma's Jocelyn Alo watches the Texas pitcher on the first inning of an NCAA softball Women's College World Series game Saturday, June 4, 2022, in Oklahoma City. Oklahoma won 7-2. Texas managed to weather the first storm Saturday afternoon in Oklahoma City. Thing is, there’s always another squall lurking just beyond the horizon whenever Oklahoma’s on the diamond.
Oklahoma , 7-2 winners over its Red River rival, is moving on to the WCWS semifinals needing just three more wins to polish off perhaps the greatest collegiate softball season in hisory. Texas , now on the brink in this double-elimination tournament, will face Arizona at 6 p.m. Sunday.“I think for sure it was on our mind,” Jennings said of Texas’ 4-2 regular-season win over Oklahoma. “Like Jocelyn said earlier, we had something to prove. No team beat us twice. And I think we proved that here.
Dolcini also wiggled out of some trouble later on in the fourth after putting Oklahoma’s first two hitters on. But Texas escaped without incident, leaving two Sooners stranded in scoring position as pinch hitter Grace Green flied out to end the inning and the threat. “It's encouraging to get a run back straightaway,” Texas coach Mike White said. “So it kind of gave us some brief confidence. Obviously, it was brief. We just started to chase. I think we try we're trying too hard and pushing ourselves too instead of letting the ball come to us. But good pitchers like Hope Trautwein make you do that. She throws with velocity and she’s effectively wild at times and moves the ball through the zone.
