Texas Longhorns Upset Oklahoma, Advance in Women’s College World Series

The Texas Longhorns have advanced to the semifinals of the Women's College World Series after a historic 4-2 victory over the Oklahoma Sooners, marking their first win against Oklahoma at the WCWS. Sophomore Teagan Kavan's strong pitching, including eight strikeouts and key plays in the final inning, was pivotal in securing the win, complemented by home runs from Kayden Henry and Joley Mitchell. In baseball, the No. 2 national seed Texas Longhorns defeated Houston Christian 7-1 in the Austin Regional, highlighted by a five-run fifth inning fueled by six hits and an error. Texas capitalized on Houston Christian's defensive mistakes, scoring six unearned runs, and used strategic pitching to hold the Huskies to a single run. This victory secured Texas a spot against the winner of the upcoming UTSA vs. Kansas State game, continuing their NCAA tournament run. Both softball and baseball Longhorn teams showcased resilience and timely hitting to advance in their respective postseason competitions.
