ESPN needs to put more focus on Kavan in top of the 7th, her amazing 0.0 ERA in the WCWS and stop this f’ing BS where they keep doing closeup focus shots on Glasco and Canaday. Let’s go Kavan 3 more outs and Texas gets our first ever WCWS!!!! 🤘🏼🧡🐂

Incredible start!! Feels like a special kinda night for the Lady Longhorns!! 🧡🐂🤘🏼

I can imagine the Sellers (alumni couple who contributed $11m, including $1m to improve softball field and $1m for Canaday) probably feel this is the best investment they’ve ever made. Puts Tech on the sports map and made them relevant. The university has to be loving the publicity this has given them. I’m impressed they were able to turn around the program in 1 yr.

Flashing back 2 weeks to the Clemson late night extra innings nail biter game 2 when Clemson had runners on 2nd and 3rd in the bottom of the 8th inning with no outs, game tied 5-5. 80% probability in that moment at least one run scores for Clemson, our season ends right then…. but Kavan and the defense were f’ing clutch with a strikeout and 2 great defensive plays for the last 2 outs, inning over with no runs. Horns won it in the 10th after holding Clemson scoreless in final 2 innings. Texas went on to battle game 3 and win the series. That super regional series showed a ton of character and fight in Texas. Same thing in game 1 against Tech in the first inning with bases loaded and no outs. Tech should have been able to generate at least a run or two in that inning. Instead, Kavan and the Horms got Canaday to hit into double play plus the third out, no damage and the Horns went on to win the greatest game I can recall in awesome fashion on Atwoods clutch 2RBI single in the 9th. Bottom line, our Lady Longhorns have major grit and in this game 3 against Texas Tech tonight for the chance to win their first ever WCWS, I’m excited to see that Longhorn grit in full force. Minimize the errors and self inflicted mistakes. Kavan should pitch well with the day’s rest and the Horns should be ready to hit on Cannaday tonight (note, that’s f’ing impressive that Canaday is carrying the full load 3 straight straight days from the mound). My prediction on final score: Texas wins 6-5 in extra innings on a solo HR by Mia Scott. Texas wins their first ever WCWS. Hook em! 🧡🐂🤘🏼

This type of injury for a speed receiver like Stewart is extremely tough to come back to same level of elite speed. Can’t think of anyone who has done it. Jimmy Graham tore his patellar tendon in 2015 and was never the same/. Even when players return, they almost always lose their elite burst. Sucks for him and any athlete.

Forecast currently shows rain in the morning but dry by afternoon. Our much bigger issue tonight was all the sloppy issues fielding. Self inflicted loss tonight.

Impressive for Canaday to pitch back to back complete games and get the win tonight. Hats off. Hopefully Kavan brings her best stuff tomorrow night and Canaday should show some fatigue. We hit her much better tonight. That said….I was thinking about the ‘pending’ final ruling on settlement of House -v- NCAA case after tonight’s game. I believe it would prevent the Sellers from ‘pay for play’ of $1m to Canaday next year, correct? How quickly will she or other players challenge the legality of the ruling as she clearly has proven she’s worth every penny and Texas Tech has easily benefitted by more than $1m from this transaction.

Why is Hunter still in the lineup????

Mia Scott en fuego!!! MVP level play in the WCWS! 🧡🤘🏼🐂

Interesting change in pitcher. Bet we see Kavan by the 5th

Encouraging to see the Horns getting hits early. 🧡🐂🤘🏼

Maloney’s diving catch was awesome!!! Let’s go Horns!!

Agree and Canaday throwing more balls through first 2 innings.

Assume they simply want 3 game series but the Texas Tech love fest is nauseating.

That made no sense with Texas hitting Canaday tonight. Come on White!!!

Sit .237 hitting Hunter back down after hitting into double play.

Think you may be right. Kavan gonna be ready.

Canada’s choked both nights at the plate with bases loaded. Last night even worse with no outs, she hit into double play.

Wow, we like drama in the first inning. Good to see Canaday choke both nights at the plate to start both games.

Let’s go Mac!!

Why did Mike White waist a challenge on that throw out at 2nd?

Let’s go Mac Morgan! Set the stage for Kavan to get the save and finish this thing tonight!!

Is tonight the night when the Lady Longhorns finally get over the hump and win their first national championship? Yes, Mac Morgan is ready to go. Game time moved back 50 mins due yo weather. hook em!!

Guess we need to start the official thread for tonight’s game. CJ and Blake must be on a beer run.

WTF? Texas has been to 7 WCWS and lost 2 of last 3 years to OU (and been overall runner up) yet the pre-game seems scripted for a narrative that TTU as the better team who lost it rather Texas winning game 1??? Even the pre-filmed video on Texas year to highlight the players and their ‘fuel the fire’ story, ESPN had a technical glitch that stopped the video prematurely. They’re using language that Texas Tech and the “Million Dollar Pitcher” will rebound tonight and get the win against Mac Morgan. Then this lovefest with Canaday and Glasco gets even worse a few mins ago….After hearing that Canaday had no experience throwing intentional walk, Glasco just admitted on interview with Holly Rowe that he forgot his ace pitcher hadn’t thrown any intentional walks all year. He fully acknowledged that was a big mistake in his part and ESPN was silent. WTF? ESpN should be roasting Glasco for calling the intentional walk. I hope Texas brings it with Mac tonight and puts it away against the million dollar pitcher. This broadcast is nauseating.
