WICHITA, Kan. — Tulsa's offense continued its hot play and the pitching held off a late rally in an 11-10 series-opening win on Thursday against Wichita State.
 
Claira Skaggs led the offense by collecting three hits, including a double and a home run, and driving in four runs. Daeya Moses contributed with two hits and a home run, adding two RBI. Maura Moore made an impact on the mound, earning a save with three strikeouts in one inning of work. Annika Dill recorded a double and drove in two runs, enhancing the team's scoring efforts.
 
In the second inning, the team took a commanding lead with a two-run double by Dill, followed by an RBI single from Madison Garcia and an RBI single by Skaggs, ending the inning with a 4–0 advantage. By the end of the third inning, the squad extended its lead to 5–2 after Mackenzy Glenn and Moses set the stage for Maci Cole's RBI single.
 
In a high-scoring fourth inning, Skaggs doubled to bring in a run, and Moses hit a two-run home run, pushing the score to 8–6 in favor of Tulsa. A fifth inning solo homer by the Shockers' Jodie Epperson narrowed the lead to 8–7.
 
The sixth inning saw Tulsa increase its lead to 11–10. Skaggs hit a two-run home run, and Cole added an RBI single. Although Wichita State's Trinity Allen hit a two-run homer, Tulsa maintained its lead.
 
In the final inning, Moore closed the game with three consecutive strikeouts, securing the win for Tulsa.
