Wichita State knew the Norman Regional present the biggest uphill battle in softball, which is why the Shockers worked so hard to avoid the 177-mile trip to Marita Hynes Field.
The point isn't to complain about the NCAA selection. The point is to value what the Shockers did from February to late May and not let two losses to the Sooners diminish that work.
No. 1 OU eliminated the Shockers 24-7 on Sunday in the Normal Regional title game in Norman.
Tough way to end a great season.
The Sooners are going to their 11thstraight Super Regional and are one of two favorites to win the national title.
