Tiare Jennings' two-run homer in the first inning sparked Oklahoma to an 8-3 win over Texas on Wednesday night that left the Sooners one win from a record fourth straight national title.
Oklahoma defeats Texas 8-3 in Game 1 of the Women's College World Series championship to inch closer to the program's fourth straight title.
Jennings had two hits and three RBI and Kinzie Hansen had two hits, including a two-run homer, for the Sooners in Game 1 of the best-of-three Women's College World Series championship series. The Sooners played Tuesday, while Texas had the day off, but Oklahoma's Kelly Maxwell negated any edge the rest might have provided for the Longhorns. A day after tossing 148 pitches in a semifinal win over Florida, Maxwell threw 119 against the Longhorns. She gave up one earned run and four hits and struck out eight.
