WALK-OFF WIN: Texas Tech Shocks No. 2 Oklahoma to Advance to WCWS National Championship

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK — In one of the most unforgettable moments in Women’s College World Series history, Texas Tech has officially punched their ticket to the national title game, knocking off the powerhouse Oklahoma Sooners in a dramatic 3-2 walk-off win Monday night.

The Red Raiders showed grit from start to finish, led by standout pitcher NiJaree Canady, who delivered a clinic in the circle. Canady allowed just two runs on five hits, striking out eight across seven fierce innings. Her performance not only shut down Oklahoma’s momentum—it ended their streak of four consecutive national championships.

Oklahoma nearly sparked another late-game miracle, tying the game at 2-2 in the top of the seventh with a two-run homer by Abigale Dayton. But the Red Raiders had other plans.

In the bottom of the seventh, Texas Tech’s Mihyia Davis knocked a single, Hailey Toney followed with a clutch double, and Lauren Allred sealed the deal with a walk-off sacrifice fly, sending the crowd into a frenzy.

This win marks Texas Tech’s first-ever appearance in the WCWS championship series—and it came at the expense of a dynasty.

Now, the Red Raiders are just one win away from capturing it all.

📸: Texas Tech players erupted in celebration as the final run crossed home plate, soaking in a moment years in the making. From the dugout to the diamond, the joy was unmatched.

🎉 Final Score:

Texas Tech 3 – Oklahoma 2
