Patty Gasso and Oklahoma softball enter unfamiliar territory on June 1 at the 2025 Women’s College World Series.
The No. 2-seeded Sooners are facing elimination at the WCWS when they take on No. 16 Oregon at 7 p.m. ET from Devon Park in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Winners of four straight national championships, Oklahoma needs to beat the Ducks and then pick up two more wins on June 2 to advance to the championship series.
Oklahoma enters the day after falling 4-2 to No. 6 Texas on Saturday in the winner's bracket. The Sooners faced an elimination game last year, albeit in the semifinals against Florida, but picked up the wins needed to advance.
Oregon is coming off a 6-5 extra inning win over Ole Miss in an elimination game on Friday. The Ducks opened the double-elimination tournament with a loss to No. 9 UCLA.
