5 years ago today: OU won the longest NCAA Softball Championship Series Game in 17 innings over Florida.
Shay Knighten’s three-run home run clinched the win for OU.

THIS IS SO COOL! These athletes deserve this and so much more. Thousands in the stands, and a million more tuning in, they are obviously doing something right. If you aren’t a fan of softball and inspired by this, you’re truly missing out.
One proud alum! This team is so good because they do it for someONE and something bigger than themselves, not the accolades or even the wins. BOOOOMMMMEEEERRRR💍
We’d have to agree with you,

The fact that the point and REASONING behind what kneeling really means is still not getting through is SICKENING! It was NEVER about flag, but it is ALWAYS about the lack of respect for people of color!
Seriously fuming right now😡🤬
@ScrapYardFP
you are better than this! Haven’t we been going over this for the last 3 weeks? This is not funny at ALL! Has nothing to do with respecting the flag and ALL to do with respecting ALL Americans in this country regardless of color of skin

She did not lose her battle, but fought every day with a bright smile and inspired all that knew her story.

Imagine- you’ve dedicated almost 30 years to a program. It’s your livelihood, it’s provided for your family, it’s your LIFE’S WORK. The commitment & sacrifice it took to reach this level- let alone sustain it.
The goal is simple- to win. Consistently.

5 things that allow your SEED of LIFE to grow into a Strong, Faith-filled tree/Child of God:
1. Soil = Your heart
2. Light = Word of God
3. Water = Jesus himself!
4. Temperature = Fire of the Spirit
5. Time = No better time than RIGHT NOW!💛
It is with a heavy heart that we share today the passing of Dave Richardson, husband to our amazing athletic trainer Jenn Richardson.
Please keep Jenn, their daughter Joie and their entire families in your thoughts and prayers as they go through this difficult time.
@ExtraInningSB
The fact that one, you decided this was okay to post? And two, that this is STILL UP? This is NOT growing the game. This is NOT supporting us as athletes. Heartless and cruel honestly.

Sometimes I find myself trying to do and figure things out on my own. Then, God comes and slaps me in the face, making me realize there is absolutely NO WAY that I am able to do anything WITHOUT Him!
ALWAYS look to Him, good or bad.
