Two-time national champion pitcher Jordy Bahl will continue her softball career at Nebraska, she announced on social media Thursday. The most outstanding player at the recent Women’s College World Series, Bahl announced her intent Monday to leave Oklahoma after she finished 44-2 in two All-America seasons.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Bahl started three of Oklahoma’s five games at the WCWS, pitching 24 2/3 scoreless innings. She struck out 33 batters and saved the championship game victory for OU against Florida State.
- Oklahoma finished 61-1 in 2023 and won its final 53 games. Bahl allowed just five runs in more than 100 innings in the circle from March 14 until the Sooners won the title. She threw 26 complete games and 15 shutouts while at OU and was named the national freshman of the year in 2022.
- Bahl graduated from Papillion-LaVista High School in Papillion, Neb. She won three state championships in Nebraska’s largest classification and was named the Gatorade National Player of the Year in 2021. She originally committed to Nebraska in 2017 but decommitted and pledged to Oklahoma before her junior year.
