Oklahoma rode the attacks of Joslyn Alo and Tier Legenings all year round. A duo joined for 59 home runs in 60 games heading to Game 1 of the Women’s College World Series final on Wednesday.
So it makes sense that Alo and Jennings were shining when the Suners needed them most. When Oklahoma broke through Texas 16-1, they each hit two home runs.

Oklahoma’s 16 runs set the record for the team to score the most in the WCWS final.
The Longhorns started quickly and culminated in the first courtesy of Hope Troutwayne’s grand slam.
However, Alo changed the situation at the bottom of the first match, hitting a screw ball against the left wing stand to lead the OU. For Texas, it only got worse as the Suners hit six home runs at night and tore the game.
There is at least one more game to play in the Best of Three series. It will be Thursday at 7:30 pm (Eastern Time). The Longhorns need to find another level after having a hard time dealing with Oklahoma bats in Game 1.

You had to be Alo and Jennings today. The two jewels of the Oklahoma Softball Program play a brilliant role in the finals of the National Championships.
10:55 pm- She did it again. Alo cranks another pitch to Bleachers, the second in the game. This is one way to make you feel your presence in the championship finals.
10:51 pm- The Longhorns cannot completely interrupt the Snurs lead. At the bottom of his fifth appearance, Oklahoma comfortably leads 12-1.
10:47 pm- Mia Scott with a smooth bit of base running to reach third base after reaching second base with an error. Perhaps Texas can make the scoreline a little better?
10:39 pm- Is this old? Immediately after the Grace Green settles on the shortstop, add another.
This is the 50th run of the Oklahoma Women’s College World Series and a new NCAA record. Who had the previous record? Last year’s Snurs. What a team. At the end of the 4th is 12-1OU.
10:36 pm- Thanks to John, this is another run of the OU. She drove catcher Kinsey Hansen and lined up the ball in her gap. A runner in a corner one distance away.
10:31 pm- According to Patty Gasso’s head coach, Oklahoma has no plans to brake immediately. You can’t give the Longhorns an inch, otherwise it will take a mile.
Also, according to Gasso, the Snurs will ride Trout Wayne as much as possible.
10:28 pm- Jennings has proved that bats can do that. Now she also flashed the leather.
The second baseman of the Suners skated high in the air, stealing a hit from Janae Jefferson. that is How to finish the inning.
10:23 pm- A smooth grab from a young audience caught the attention of the broadcast team. Pretty cool!
Longhorns 1 on, 2 out at the 4th top.
10:15 pm- After three rounds, this looks more and more like a rout. Immediately 10-1.
10:10 pm- And that’s another ginger. Tiare Jennings hit one against the fence, driving three runners and pushing the OU lead to nine. This is ugly and fast.
Tiare intends to bring her …

9:56 pm- Dayton’s stand-up double one away. Washington to the plate with the scoring runners.
