OU softball head coach Patty Gasso knew it was going to be a tough weekend. Not just because it was the Norman Regional or because we’ve entered the postseason. But getting Oregon to come to Love’s Field? A wave of emotions were going to follow, and they did. It couldn’t happen any other way when you think about the connections Gasso has with Oregon head coach Melyssa Lombardi and assistant Sydney Romero. And the two teams played an outstanding game that saw No. 2 OU do just enough when it mattered most. The Sooners pulled out the 3-2 victory against the Ducks on Sunday afternoon to punch thei...

OU softball was rolling with Kelly Maxwell in the circle. But eventually, a big hit was going to be had by either OU or Oregon. It happened in the bottom of the fifth, and it happened for the Sooners. Co-captain Tiare Jennings hit one of the longest home runs in Love’s Field history, a two-run shot. That gave some separation, and Maxwell did the rest in a 6-3 victory against Oregon on Saturday in the Norman Regional. The win puts OU in the driver’s seat to earning a berth into the Super Regional. OU will have two chances to win one game Sunday. The Sooners haven’t needed any extra help through...

It took a while for OU softball to figure out Cleveland State at the plate, but it didn’t matter with the way Nicole May was throwing. The third time around, and the Sooners found their groove. And May never let up as OU fought its way to the 9-0 six-inning, run-rule victory against the Vikings in the Norman Regional on Friday night at Love’s Field. The victory puts OU in the winners’ bracket of the double-elimination weekend. The Sooners will play Oregon 2 p.m. Saturday. It was just 1-0 with two outs in the bottom of the fourth. And then the OU bats came to life and started to show that clutc...

OU softball looks incredibly comfortable at Devon Park. It’s the home away from home in Oklahoma City. But what about Norman? More specifically, what about Love’s Field? The Sooners have only lost six games this season, but strangely enough? Four of those have occurred at OU’s new palace. Whether it has been getting accustomed to the crowd or how the park plays or just added internal pressure, it hasn’t been the smoothest ride. The last impression, though, was the best. The 8-2 Bedlam victory against Oklahoma State was the last game on the field. And arguably, the most complete showing. “I thi...

Oklahoma scored 26 runs on Thursday sweeping Cincinnati in a doubleheader to clinch another series win, secure yet another school-record (23 conference wins the most in school history) and keep hopes alive to secure a top 8 national seed in the NCAA Tournament. On April 7, Oklahoma fell to 17-14 following a Bedlam series loss in Stillwater. Since?

OU softball is in a very familiar spot, hosting a regional. But it’s a little different with the Sooners the No. 2 seed in the country. And the biggest change? Indeed, Love’s Field.

It’s the middle of May, OU football is supposed to be taking it easy. The team? Well, it actually is. Guys went home, mission trips, micro-internships. The calm before the Schmidty storm. But the coaches? Head coach Brent Venables and staff don’t have room to breathe just yet. And maybe they’re not done with Team 130, either. It’s the Unofficial 40 podcast from SoonerScoop breaking it all down. The gang returns to talk even more about what OU might look like in 2024.
