Southern Oregon Wins NAIA Softball Championship
Southern Oregon University (SOU) softball made history by winning its fourth NAIA national title, becoming the first team to claim the championship after losing its opening game. The Raiders battled through seven consecutive elimination games, including a dramatic extra-innings win over Marian (Ind.), with freshman pitcher Ayla Davies earning tournament MVP honors for her multiple shutouts. SOU clinched the championship with a 6-3 comeback victory over Oklahoma City, having previously defeated them 8-0 earlier in the tournament. Key players such as Vanessa Lang and Sarah Kerling made critical offensive contributions, including home runs and walk-off hits. Head coach Jessica Pistole highlighted the team's resilience and ability to perform under pressure. This victory adds to SOU’s previous national titles in 2019, 2021, and 2023.
