Oregon vs. Oklahoma softball final score, results: Sooners stay alive behind three-homer night, eliminate Ducks image

The four-time defending champions won't be going down without a fight.

Oklahoma took down Oregon 4-1 on Sunday night in an elimination matchup at the 2025 Women's College World Series, pushing its title defense another game while ending the Ducks' season. Power and pitching were the stories of the night for the Sooners.

Oregon, which prevailed over Ole Miss in extra innings on Friday, took the first lead vs. Oklahoma, but it never threatened again. A solo home run from Dezianna Patmon in the top of the second was immediately matched by the Sooners' Isabela Emerling — and one inning later, Oklahoma then captured the lead with a two-run shot from Cydney Sanders.

The Sooners cruised the rest of the way on both sides of the ball. Sanders homered again, finishing the night with two solo shots, while Sam Landry came into the circle in relief and went 4.2 scoreless innings while striking out six. As the Ducks' bats went silent vs. Landry, Oregon saw a long, and successful, 2025 season come to an end.

The 2025 Women's College World Series' playing field has shrunk again. After Sunday, just four teams remain alive: Oklahoma, Texas, Texas Tech and Tennessee.

9:50 p.m. — That's it. Oregon's bats are quiet in the top of the seventh against Landry, and the Ducks' season comes to an end after taking a 1-0 lead in the second inning.

9:35 p.m. — Make it four punchouts for Sam Landry over 3.1 innings of work. Once again, she dices the Ducks up in the top of the sixth. Oregon will have just one more opportunity to come back in this one.

9:24 p.m. — We're onto the sixth inning, with the Ducks' season on the line and needing some runs. Landry has shut Oregon's offense down, while home runs have lifted the Sooners.

9:06 p.m. — Starting to run out of opportunities, the Ducks can't find much momentum in the top of the fifth, going down 1-2-3. Landry has settled in.

End of third inning: Oklahoma 3, Oregon 1

8:12 p.m. — Oklahoma gets a huge double play! Gabbie Garcia makes an excellent play on a pop up in the short outfield, then turns around and fires the ball back to second to double-up the runner. The Sooners will also bring in Sam Landry to pitch in the third inning.
