Oklahoma Wins Series Despite Gonzaga Game 3 Win

No. 13 Oklahoma wins the series 2-1 against Gonzaga despite losing Sunday's finale. Mikey Bell's two-run homer wasn't enough as the Sooners claimed their 14th win of the season.

No. 13 Oklahoma secured a 2-1 series victory over Gonzaga despite dropping Sunday's finale. The Sooners won 14-4 in the opener and 11-1 in Game 2, making Sunday's 6-1 loss of little consequence in the series outcome.

Oklahoma's Karsten Sweum pitched effectively, allowing just one run on three hits with seven strikeouts. Brendan Brock's solo homer in the sixth accounted for Oklahoma's lone run. Gonzaga broke the game open with five runs in the eighth inning, but the victory came too late to change the series result.
