Cougars to face top-ranked Oklahoma
HOUSTON – After concluding its first three-game series of the 2021 campaign, the University of Houston Softball team returns to Cougar Softball Stadium for a Wednesday showdown with McNeese before traveling to Oklahoma City and participating in the Oklahoma Hall of Fame Classic March 12-13.
Following its matchup with McNeese, Houston will square up with No. 1/1 Oklahoma for the third time this season. The last time Cougars faced the Sooners, Houston held OU to just five runs, which is tied for the fewest Oklahoma has scored this year.
At the Hall of Fame Classic, Houston will also face another top-10 opponent in No. 7/7 Oklahoma State. The doubleheader with the Cowgirls will be the Cougars' fifth and sixth game against a top-10 opponent this season. Despite falling in its last three matchups with OSU, Houston holds the all-time series lead at 7-5.
