The three-peat is complete. Top-seeded Oklahoma softball defeated No. 3 Florida State 3-1 on Thursday night and finished off a clean sweep of the Women’s College World Series to win its third consecutive national championship.
Back-to-back home run balls by Cydney Sanders and Grace Lyons in the fifth inning erased a 1-0 Florida State lead and put the Sooners ahead 2-1 and on the way to a two-game sweep in the best-of-three championship series.
Jordy Bahl, named the Most Outstanding Player in this year’s WCWS, came on in relief of Sooner starter Alex Storako in the fifth inning after Oklahoma had jumped out in front 2-1 in the half inning before.
