In their 4-2 win over the Florida State Seminoles, the Oklahoma Sooners extended their record NCAA Tournament winning streak to 18 games. It’s a run that dates back two postseasons and doesn’t look like it’ll be slowing down anytime soon.
They’ve had an air of inevitability to them over the last four years that creates a level of anticipation for the viewer. Whether in person or on the television, those who watch Oklahoma Sooners softball come to expect to see something remarkable. In the win over the Seminoles that punched their ticket to the Women’s College World Series, the Sooners once again put together a remarkable performance.
From Jayda Coleman’s robbery of Florida State power hitter Jaysoni Beachum to Cydney Sanders’ full layout in foul territory an inning later and Kierston Deal’s diving attempt earlier in the game, the Sooners put it all on the line to secure the win.
With it, they clinched their eighth consecutive trip to the Women’s College World Series and a chance to make history as the first team ever to win four straight national championships.
The Women’s College World Series will get underway at the newly dubbed Devon Park in Oklahoma City on May 30.
