Different sports, but her calmness and consistency in her performance reminds me of Andrew Luck! She is that talented.

Who will be the starting pitcher tomorrow? It looks like tomorrow's game is at 9:00 am Pacific Time on ESPN. I will have to record and watch later in the day.

This is a tough one. I think you go with Vawter to start, because OU effectively hasn't seen her. It also gives NiJaree more time to rest.
I will have to check Jordy Bahl's pitch count, but they might go with Nicole May (she has thrown all of 10 pitches in the WCWS)?

Was Canady the #1 recruit in the country or something? She is the kind of Pitcher who can take a team to a natty. I would think she will help recruit some elite position players, cuz if Stanford can score 2 runs a game they will almost always win with her in the circle.
And she will probably only get better in her three more years. Hopefully she won't be offered a bunch of money to transfer to Oklahoma or something.
Speaking of, it would be very Stanford-like to end OU's win streak. But I just don't see Stanford having the offense to beat them; 3 runs in 3 games is not good enough.

I might offering a hot take, or stating the obvious in the case of OU, but I really think if Stanford somehow beats
OU twice tomorrow, they will win a national championship.
Stanford and Oklahoma clearly look like the two best teams IMO.

Two good factors in our favor: one, the Stanford degree seems like it is really important to NiJaree (Stanford has been her dream school). Second, there are a lot of great arms at OU to split innings between (including an ace in Jordy Bahl).

That was great. Canady is indeed totally electric. Methinks we could use a heavy hitter or two.

2 Run first inning HR by Chung. Go Card

2-2 in the middle of the 4th.
nice double play to get out of the top of the inning.

Bet Canady now. Top of the order third time around
Nope AV

and Canady gets out of a 2-on-no-outs situation in the top of the 7th, despite getting squeezed by the ump.
2-2, middle of the 7th.

That 2-2 pitch was clearly a strike. That was nail biting tense.
Extra innings. GO STANFORD!

Stanford missed too many opportunities. We couldn't expect to hold Oklahoma scoreless indefinitely.
Stanford gave it their best shot. Too bad they came up just short.
Congrats to Stanford softball on an outstanding season!

Great season by the Cardinal. We should be very proud.

Very casual softball fan here, but truly this has been a remarkable turnaround for the program. Tremendous respect and admiration for all involved. They have much to be proud of!
