Just a reminder that the 2027 college softball season is only 8 months away. The portal is open. Commitments are coming. And Texas has a target on its back the size of the Lone Star State. Who is coming for the throne? 🥎 #WCWS2026 #CollegeSoftball

Texas Longhorns go BACK-TO-BACK!

[We Live Softball @we_livesoftball]

Texas Tech down to their last three outs! Texas leads 4-1!

KAVAN IS IN THE GAME! And she does not waste any time. Strikes out the SIDE in the bottom of the sixth 🔥😤 #HookEm #WCWS2026 #WCWS

Through 5 innings: Texas 2, Texas Tech 1. 🥎 #HookEm #WreckEm #WCWS2026 #WCWS

[We Live Softball @we_livesoftball]

Back to back singles to start the inning, Stewart gets the intentional walk to load the bases and Vivi Martinez hits one into the six hole. The throw to third is WILD and TWO RUNS SCORE! Texas takes the lead 2-1 in the fifth! You cannot give these Longhorns anything free! 🤘🥎

[We Live Softball @we_livesoftball]

Bases loaded, two outs but Davis lines out to center to end the threat! Texas dodges a MASSIVE bullet right there. Gutierrez getting out of the biggest jam of the night coming back in to bail out freshman Wells. Still 1-0 Texas Tech. 😅🥎 #HookEm #WCWS2026 #WCWS

[We Live Softball @we_livesoftball]

Reese Atwood doubles to left and Texas has a chance but Canady bears down and strands two more runners. She is absolutely refusing to let the Longhorns breathe tonight. Still 1-0 Texas Tech after 3.5 innings. 😤🥎 #WreckEm #WCWS2026 #WCWS

[We Live Softball @we_livesoftball]

Through 3 innings: Texas Tech 1, Texas 0. 🥎 #HookEm #WreckEm #WCWS2026 #WCWS

[We Live Softball @we_livesoftball]

TEXAS TECH STRIKES FIRST! Lauren Allred rips one up the middle and the Red Raiders draw first blood. 1-0 Texas Tech in the third. Canady has the lead now and that makes her twice as dangerous. 💥 #WreckEm #WCWS2026 #WCWS

[We Live Softball @we_livesoftball]

Gutierrez escapes again! Burns singles to RF, but Tech strands two more and we stay knotted at 0-0 after two complete. Both pitchers are grinding and this game has championship written all over it. 🥎 #HookEm #WreckEm #WCWS2026 #WCWS

[We Live Softball @we_livesoftball]

Canady is LOCKED IN. Sits down Texas 1-2-3 in the top of the second. This is the Canady Texas Tech needed. 😤🥎 #WreckEm #WCWS2026 #WCWS

[We Live Softball @we_livesoftball]

Both teams leaving runners on base early. Gutierrez returns the favor and strands a Red Raider Davis on 2B to keep it scoreless. Pitchers are in control through one inning in Oklahoma City. 🥎 #HookEm #WreckEm #WCWS2026 #WCWS
