Oklahoma softball lost their second game of the year on Saturday to No. 2 Washington 12-2 in the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic.

The Huskies were all over the third-ranked Sooners from the get-go, jumping out to 7-0 lead before Oklahoma could answer back. They scored two runs in the first inning and poured on four more in the second.

Washington was one run away from a run-rule before the Sooners scored their only two runs of the game in the bottom of the fifth. Taylon Snow singled to scored Alycia Flores. Freshman Kinzie Hansen would then single to score Snow.

Only four Sooners finished with hits against Washington’s starting pitcher Kelley Lynch. Huskies’ reliever Gabbie Plain didn’t allow a hit in two innings of work.

The Huskies scored four more runs in the last inning.

After run-ruling Nebraska early Friday, the Sooners beat Texas A&M and Seattle University by just one point each. Both contests finished 2-1 in favor of Oklahoma.

The Sooners, now 11-2, will finish off the Mary Nutter Classic with a Sunday matchup against Wisconsin at 11 a.m.
