OU softball: Super regional matchup, dates set

Oklahoma's super regional series against Northwestern will begin Friday in Norman, the NCAA announced Monday morning.

Game 2 is set for Saturday, and an if-necessary Game 3 is slated for Sunday. Times and TV designations have yet to be determined.

No. 1 seed Oklahoma defeated Wisconsin on Sunday to advance to the super regionals. Sixteenth-seeded Northwestern worked its way out of the loser's bracket to beat Louisville in the final of the Evanston Regional.

The Sooners twice beat the Wildcats, 7-0 and 8-0, in OU's home tournament in early March.
