Oklahoma in the NFCA Poll
Oklahoma is the only program to be ranked every week of the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) poll. The Sooners entered the rankings at No. 18 in the first poll on January 24, 1995. They have not dropped out since -- 353 straight polls. Oklahoma formally recognizes the NFCA poll as its poll of choice.
The following grid shows every week of the NFCA Poll and OU's ranking. The numbers along the top represent the week with "F" as the final poll. 'NP' means that there was no poll that week.
