  • UCLA Beats Oklahoma with Walk-Off to Clinch National Softball Title
    UCLA Beats Oklahoma with Walk-off to Clinch National Softball Title UCLA Athletics A two-out, walk-off single in the bottom of the seventh inning from sophomore Kinsley Washington delivers a 5-4 UCLA win over Oklahoma at the NCAA Women's College World Series Tuesday night before a sell-out crowd in Oklahoma City. By Laurie Lauletta-Boshart June 5, 2019 8:24 AM OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. — Following a 16-3 route over Oklahoma in Game 1 of the NCAA Women's College World Series, the UCLA Bruins were looking to finish off the top-seeded Sooners in Game 2, but Oklahoma was hoping to play the spoiler. Facing elimination, the Sooners had to win Tuesday night to force a Game 3 in the best-of-three championship series. All American Giselle “G” Juarez was in the circle for Oklahoma, while two-time National Player of the Year Rachel Garcia was on the bump for UCLA. After struggling at the plate in Game 1, senior Sydney Romero opened up play with a leadoff double, igniting the crowd of 8,373 at the USA Hall of Fame Stadium in Oklahoma City as she jumped on the second pitch to send it into right center. But a couple of strikeouts and a hard-hit grounder expertly fielded by third baseman Brianna Tautalafua, ended the inning for Oklahoma with no runs on the board. UCLA immediately countered with back-to-back home runs from Bubba Nickles and Briana Perez in the bottom of the first, putting UCLA up 2-0. Oklahoma answered with a Sydney Romero home run to left center in the top of the third to get the Sooners on the scoreboard.
