AUSTIN, TX – Saturday afternoon was another example of the potential within the Texas softball program as the No. 7/7 Longhorns knocked off No. 3/3 Oklahoma State, 3-2 and 5-2, to complete the three-game sweep of the Cowgirls for the first time since 2016.
Less than 20 hours after providing the heroics in game one, Reese Atwood was at it, again, in game two.
After Mia Scott broke up Kelly Maxwell's no-hit bid with a leadoff single to start the bottom of the seventh, Leighann Goode, two batters later, followed with an infield single to set the stage for Atwood's game-ending, three-run home run that traveled 263-feet from home plate over the left-centerfield fence.
