NORMAN — With Friday's game heading into extra innings, and offense hard to come by for both Oklahoma and Tennessee, the night was likely to be settled with a heroic moment at the plate.
That moment emerged for Tennessee, and it came from a familiar face for the Sooners.
After Tennessee landed a base runner with a single, Sophia Nugent blasted a two-run home run to right field off of Sam Landry to give the Volunteers a 4-2 lead in the top of the eighth inning.. Nugent spent two seasons with the Sooners before transferring to Tennessee prior to the 2024 season.
