OU softball maintains poise in run-rule of Boston U

NORMAN — Sitting at the dais after Oklahoma's 9-0 win against Boston University, coach Patty Gasso paused, searching for the right word to describe her team.

The final score suggested a total domination of the Terriers, but the 1,738 fans at Marita Hynes Field saw something a little different.

The two teams were locked in a pitching duel through 3 1/2 innings, neither side able to break through.

Senior ace Paige Parker was dealing, facing the minimum in the opening two frames and striking out three. Patriot League Pitcher and Rookie of the Year Ali DuBois faced just seven OU batters in the first two frames, striking out one.
