A night after registering just one hit in a loss, Stanford broke out with runs in five consecutive innings to beat Oklahoma State 8-0 in six innings in an elimination game at the Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City on Friday.
Stanford (49-16) will take on either Oklahoma or UCLA in an elimination game Sunday. Oklahoma State’s season ends 49-12 after making its fifth consecutive WCWS appearance.
The Cardinal are 4-0 in elimination games in this NCAA Tournament. NiJaree Canady (23-6) had seven strikeouts and three walks in a complete-game victory.
Ava Gall and Kaitlyn Lim each homered for the Cardinal. Gall hit a solo shot in the second for the first run of the game.
Oklahoma State’s best chance to score came in the fifth, when Micaela Wark took Canady deep to center. But Stanford center fielder Emily Jones leaped at the wall and snagged Wark’s drive to keep the Cowgirls off the board.
Jones made another big play in the sixth, coming in to make a diving catch on Karli Godwin’s sinking liner.
