Behind another dominant performance from starter Paige Parker, the Oklahoma Sooners beat the Washington Huskies 3-1 on Friday night and punched their ticket for a Sunday chance at the WCWS finals.
Parker limited the Huskies to just three hits in 6.1 innings, allowing only a solo home run to UW leadoff hitter Ali Aguilar in the sixth. Parker struck out six and walked just one on the night, and handed off to Paige Lowary to record the last two outs for the victorious Sooners.
OU gathered its three runs one at a time in the second, fifth and sixth innings.
