Four Sooners Homer, Landry Deals Complete Game
LOS ANGELES — No. 2 Oklahoma Softball (5-0) scored five runs in the first inning and didn't look back, cruising past Loyola Marymount (1-3), 9-0, thanks to a complete game from Sam Landry and four home runs from four different Sooners.
OU didn't waste any time, scoring three runs in the first inning. Abigale Dayton singled through the left side, Ella Parker reached on a fielding error and Kasidi Pickering capitalized with a three-run home run to center.
OU kept the pressure on to score two more in the first. Sydney Barker reached on a fielder's choice, moved up on a Cydney Sanders single and scored on a fielding error by LMU second baseman Justine Lambert. Ailana Agbayani beat out an infield single to plate Sanders one batter later.
Ella Parker made it 6-0 Sooners in the second inning with her first home run of 2025. The lefty smoked a center cut pitch into the bleachers in center. Just like Parker, Cydney Sanders launched a solo home run an inning later, her first of 2025.
Landry was on her game, not permitting a base hit until the fourth inning. The only real trouble she ran into came in the sixth inning with runners on the corners and nobody out, but she managed to escape thanks to a great snag by Cydney Sanders at first and an inning-ending groundout to Agbayani at second.
Tia Milloy provided the final runs of the game, unloading for a two-run home run to the top of the batting facility in right field to make it 9-0 Sooners.

Notes
"I will say that I'm pleased about today, just because of the way we came out. We had not scored in the first inning in the last four games we had played. Coming out and doing that was really important to us. What I didn't like was that in the next three innings, I'm not going to say that we gave up, but we didn't swing the bat like we are capable of. We talked about that and the importance of staying hungry. This has been a long trip and we've been on our feet a lot, and I think you could start to see that tonight. So, we have to learn how to play when our body doesn't want to, because that's what you're going to feel like in postseason. I'm really happy with the way some of these guys are swinging the bat."
"I thought our defense has been playing really, really well. Sam Landry did a great job tonight and she's been a horse this weekend, working for us. I loved Cyd's play and that brought us some energy. I'm loving what our defense is doing. Our pitching staff is doing great and our offense just has some lulls sometimes, and we've got to get that worked out."
