STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Morgyn Wynne hit a three-run home run, Lexi Kilfoyl retired the last 20 batters she faced, and sixth-seeded Oklahoma State rolled to an 8-1 win over Oregon in the first game of the Stillwater Super Regional on Thursday night.
After the Ducks (38-16) took a 1-0 lead in the second inning on a single by Alyssa Daniell, Kilfoyl took command and finished with a three-hitter with 13 outs being groundouts. Her offense broke loose with three runs in the fourth inning and four in the fifth.
Game 2 in the best-of-3 series is Friday.
Limited to a single by Oregon starter Morgan Scott through three innings, the Cowgirls (45-14) got a one-out homer from Kiley Naomi, her 12th, in the fourth and added runs on an error by Scott and a single by Tallen Edwards.
Wynne capped the four-run fifth with her 10th home run and Chyenne Factor singled in a run in the sixth.
Kilfoyl improved to 15-5 while Morgan fell to 13-7.
OSU beat Oregon 3-0 in its season opener in Mexico on Feb. 10.
