STILLWATER – The Oklahoma State softball team remains a consensus top 10 team in both the national polls following the first weekend of competition. The Cowgirls slot in at No. 9 in the NFCA/GoRout Coaches Poll and No. 10 by ESPN.com/USA Softball.

The Cowgirls opened their season with a 2-2 showing at the Puerto Vallarta College Challenge. The Pokes beat then-No. 9/12 Florida State, 9-6, on opening day and collected a six-inning, 8-0, run-rule victory over Northern Colorado on Friday afternoon.
Oklahoma State continues its season this weekend with five games in three days at the Shriners Children's Clearwater Invitational in Clearwater, Fla., from February 14-16, where they'll face off against UCLA, Kentucky, Texas A&M, Auburn and Alabama.
