OSU Softball Ends Fall With 4-3 Win Over Wichita State
October 20, 2021 | Cowgirl Softball
STILLWATER – A Sydney Pennington grand slam lifted Oklahoma State softball to its seventh-consecutive win of the fall season over Wichita State, 4-3, at Cowgirl Stadium on Wednesday.
Kelly Maxwell earned the start for the Cowgirls, her third of the fall. She fanned four batters and kept the Shockers out of the hit column in her three innings of work.
The Shockers were first to score with a three-run home run in their half of the fourth.
OSU answered with Pennington's slam in the bottom of the sixth, which amounted to the game-winning play.
The Oklahoma State defense did its part in protecting the lead in the field, silencing the Shockers from the fifth inning on. Kiley Naomi and Brianna Evans each flashed the leather throughout the evening, particularly so with a pair of unassisted double plays.
In as the Cowgirls' closer in the seventh, Morgan Day struck out seven and allowed only a single hit in the final four innings to preserve the victory.
In its seven games of the 2021 fall season, Oklahoma State softball outscored its opponents, 108-7.
