OKLAHOMA CITY — Jordy Bahl threw three innings of perfect relief and Oklahoma won its third straight Women’s College World Series title and seventh overall, beating Florida State, 3-1, on Thursday night for a two-game sweep.
Oklahoma’s only defeat was a 4-3 loss at Baylor on Feb. 19. The Sooners set a record for win percentage and had the fewest losses of any NCAA champion. They led the nation in runs per game, ERA and batting average – even after losing Division I career home run leader Jocelyn Alo from last year’s team.
Bahl, a sophomore from Papillion, Nebraska, pitched 24-2/3 scoreless innings in the WCWS and was named its Most Outstanding Player. She went 4-0, earned the save on Thursday and became the first pitcher since 1992 to work at least 20 innings at the World Series without allowing a run. Alynah Torres padded the Sooners’ lead with an RBI single in the sixth, and that was plenty of cushion for Bahl, who struck out three and threw 39 pitches, 28 for strikes.
