The Oklahoma State Cowgirls have secured their spot in the Women’s College World Series after sweeping Arizona in the Super Regional on Saturday. With a 10-4 victory, OSU remained undefeated in the NCAA Tournament and continued their impressive run of success in postseason play.
In the opening game of the series on Friday, Lexi Kilfoyl led the Cowgirls to an 8-0 victory over Arizona with a dominant pitching performance. Kilfoyl shut out the Wildcats over five innings, allowing only three hits and striking out three batters. The Cowgirls’ offense also came alive in the fourth inning, scoring five runs to secure the win.
Tallen Edwards’ two-run homer gave OSU an early lead in the first inning of Saturday’s game against Arizona. However, Arizona responded with a run of their own. Despite this early setback, OSU was able to pull ahead and maintain their lead throughout the game. A lightning delay in the fifth inning briefly paused the game, but the Cowgirls held on for the win and completed their sweep of Arizona.
This win against Arizona marks OSU’s fifth consecutive appearance in the Women’s College World Series and their third straight undefeated Regional and Super Regional run. The Cowgirls’ continued success in postseason play highlights their years-long stretch of excellence on the softball field.
