OKLAHOMA CITY — The Cowgirls made things interesting Thursday in the final frame, but a late insurance run advanced them in the Women’s College World Series winner’s bracket.
Oklahoma State topped Georgia 3-2 on Thursday at Hall of Fame Stadium after a dicey top of the seventh. Georgia shortstop Ellie Armistead hit a one-out double to left-center that cut OSU’s lead to a sole run and put runners on second and third.
OSU pitcher Carrie Eberle was able to maneuver out of the jam with militaristic precision. She forced an infield pop up that held the runners and forced a dribbler that Sydney Pennington was able to get to and record the final out with a throw to first.
