OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - After allowing only one home run in 37 games, Massachusetts' Danielle Henderson gave up three Saturday as Oklahoma State eliminated the Minutewomen with a 6-0 victory in the Women's College World Series.
Henderson allowed five runs and seven hits, walked four and struck out four.
The game was scoreless until the third inning, when Liz Silva hit her second homer of the year for Oklahoma State.
The Cowgirls increased their lead in the fourth on a homer by Shannon Sullivan and an RBI single by Silva. Oklahoma State (41-18) wrapped up scoring in the fifth when Kristi Bolle hit a two-run homer and Casey Acree scored on a wild pitch.
Oklahoma State's Leanne Tyler allowed only one hit - a single in the first inning by Kim Gutridge - as she improved to 13-6. She struck out eight and walked four.
Massachusetts ended the season at 45-14.
