The Shockers play the Sooners a single game in Norman on Wednesday with a 5pm start time.
Oklahoma, back-to-back National Champions, have a record of 34-2 and were a preseason pick for first among the seven schools playing softball in the Big 12. They are 9-1 against teams who were RV or better in the Coaches’ Poll including a run-rule of Nebraska and a shutout of Ohio State.
The stats available for Oklahoma are part of the Big 12 stats and then only if you are in the Top 10 - none are to be found on OU’s site. Their offense is led by freshman Jocelyn Alo with an OPS of 1.612 and seventeen homers. Sydney Romero with an OPS of 1.337 and Caleigh Clifton at 1.032 are also above the 1.000 mark. Romero and Nicole Pendley have nine home runs. Alo has been National Player of the Week and twice been Big 12 Player of the Week. Romero has achieved that latter honor once.
The top three ERAs in the Big 12 all belong to Sooner hurlers. Paige Parker, who has been National Pitcher of the Week and Big 12 Pitcher of the Week, has an ERA of 0.35 and a WHIP of 0.61. She has about half of the innings. The other two starters are Paige Lowary (0.79 and 0.86) and Mariah Lopez (1.30 and 0.70). Who knows - we may see still another pitcher - there are two more on the roster.
The record for the Shockers is now 22-14.
Bailey’s recent rough outings have raised her ERA to 3.07 with a WHIP of 1.31. BaileyK numbers are now down to 2.98 and 1.55.
The highest OPS on the team are Laurie at .975, Paige at .961 and Ryleigh at .941.
