If the game takes place, the Oklahoma Sooners will be on the road in Wichita on Tuesday to play Wichita State in a 6 PM game. The game will be televised on ESPN+. It will be my first game in Wichita to see the Sooners play. I will see if there is a...

If it's like most of OUr other games, the rescheduled game will be televised by ESPN+.
The Oklahoma Sooners' Alynah Torres has been selected as the Big 12 Softball Player of the Week.
(From the article below) - Torres led the league in home runs, RBIs, total bases and slugging percentage while helping the Sooners to a 4-0 week that...
Besides the OU / Baylor series, we have these matchups also:
OSU at BYU Thu 3/21 - Sat 3/23 Can BYU sneak a game away from the Cowgirls? I hadn't thought so until Tulsa grabbed one Tuesday night. Now I'm not so sure.
Kansas at Houston Can Kansas...

The Oklahoma Sooners swept the Saturday DH with scores of 12-3 and 7-4 in the two wins. That followed the 8-1 win in OKC on Friday. Oklahoma's offensive performance is the reason as they scored 27 runs in the 3 games in 16.1 innings of hitting. The...
Baylor 0 runs in top of 1st. OU at bat. Crandall pitching for Bears. OU up 1-0. Sorry, I missed most of the 1st inning. Note that Torres is in for Pickering in right field. On to 2nd inning.
Deal still pitching. First batter gets single to right....

Though only the last game of the three was really competitive in retrospect, Baylor felt like a very pesky group. The Bears lingered around for a good stretch of total innings - and were within striking distance much of the time. They proved to be a...
Top of First. 2 outs and one on for Bears. May pitching. The Baylor runner is on 3rd base. Flores walks. Flyout to Boone. Sooners now up to bat.

Could not agree more about Pickering. She just isn’t covering the outside of the plate. It reminds me of Erickson last year. It can be fixed. She will be fine. I’m sure JT is all over it.
The Pickering slump is concerning indeed. However, I...
In front of 8,798 fans in the Hall of Fame Stadium in OKC, the Sooners won over the Baylor Bears 8-1 with a big 5th inning when the Sooners scored 7 runs. The Sooners that helped nail down the victory were Kelly Maxwell (Winning pitcher), Tiare...

I noticed Ludlam had a more traditional bat grip, but with the 2 fingers still heavily taped, she just isn’t going to generate power.
Like I said - Lud has plenty of power even with 2 heavily taped fingers… :D
Before the season began, I thought the Baylor Bears might be one of the teams to challenge both Texas and the Sooners for a game or a series. They would be having players coming off injuries--supposedly healed up and had some transfers and freshmen...

Thank you for the stats, '56!
The facts tell the story better than my perceptions. This is exactly what I mean when I say the stats can be a comfort. Looks like OU is doing very well hitting the ball in many different situations.
How about UCLA at Washington
Here is where we find out if there is any fight in the Bruins to try to take back the last season of the PAC12. Washington and Stanford were in most peoples minds to vie for the conference. The Bruins stand at 17-6...

Four Softball games of note on Wednesday 3/20
First up is the South Carolina at Clemson game. SC 6 Clemson 4 in 12 innings.
Vawter outpitched a trio of Clemson pitchers over 12 innings as Vawter pitched a CG Win. Spencer, Millie Thompson and...
For a very long time, I have thought that RPI as a standard to determine a teams value was woefully inadequate for many reasons. Today, I opened my D1 Softball subscription and I found something announced by 6-4-3 Sports and D1 Softball called DSR...

I'm wondering how far into the season we need to be to have faith in these numbers. This week, OU is in 2nd place. Last week we were in 4th. The week before that, we were in 8th. Our only loss is to #32 Lousiana. #1 LSU has two losses to #22 Ole...
The 27-1 Oklahoma Sooners will host UT-Arlington in Love's Field for a single game on Wednesday night in a 6 PM first pitch game. UT-Arlington is 10-16 on the season but is 7-3 in their last 10 games. The Oklahoma Sooners have won their last 9 games...
So, is Ludlam OK after that injury (?) to her finger (hand) sliding back into 2B in the 2nd inning, I think?
Heard it was bandaged up and she finished the game at catcher.
Any aftereffects?
Thanks

Maybe Deal and May need to start taking batting practice so we can use the DP for her.
This post is intended to provide a 'halfway look' at the Sooners for 2024 to see where they are and what we can expect the second half of the season. Oklahoma has played 28 or 60-ish games. so this is not exactly halfway, but pretty close and I have...

Thanks 'oufanforever' for posting that. I saw it earlier but I could not get it to play on my phone and then forgot about finding it.
1.7 is a very good time for a 3rd catcher. I was a catcher, my son was a catcher. I know that number pretty well....

I like Plank. Every announcer makes mistakes. Go to ESPN+ and watch one of the Texas Tech games. Tell me Plank isn't better than that guy. And it isn't just Tech, you can say that about many college softball announcers.
The Oklahoma Sooners Softball team playing on Sunday in the coldest weather of the weekend to start the game, posted a 11-1 win over Tech to complete the 3-game sweep and to outscore the Red Raiders in the 3-game series 40-3. Win might not have...
