The NCAA Women’s College World Series could name its national champion Thursday night. The Oklahoma Sooners dominated the Texas Longhorns Wednesday night 16-1 in Game 1 of the best-of-3 series for the national title. Texas now has to win back-to-back games against the Sooners to win the series.

Oklahoma hit a Women’s College World Series record 6 home runs Wednesday night. Sooners star Jocelyn Alo hit 2 home runs and improved to 11-of-15 with 13 RBIs in the WCWS. Wednesday night was Jocelyn Alo’s second multi-home run game at the WCWS. She is the only player in Women’s College World Series history with 2 multi-home run games in her career.

Texas didn’t help itself much, as it committed 4 errors on defense and managed to plate only 1 run.

Game 2 is Thursday night at 7:30 p.m. on ESPN2, and if necessary, Game 3 will be Friday, June 10 at 8:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.
