STILLWATER — A double-digit strikeout performance from Ruby Meylan led the No. 23 Oklahoma State softball team to a 7-4 victory over Utah at Cowgirl Stadium Friday.
With the win, the Cowgirls improved to 31-17 overall and 11-9 in the Big 12, while the Utes dropped to 13-37 and 5-17 in the conference.
With the decision, Meylan tallied her 20th win of the season, a mark that only 23 other Cowgirls have achieved.
Utah opened the scoring in the fourth inning when Emily Capobianco hit a two-run home run to left field, but the Cowgirls responded with three of their own in the bottom of the fourth. Claire Timm hit a leadoff double, setting up Micaela Wark’s seventh home run of the season, a two-run blast to right. OSU then loaded the bases with a Megan Delgadillo triple and walks to Tallen Edwards and Rosie Davis. Amanda Hasler was hit by a pitch, plating the go-ahead run for the Cowgirls.
Timm started the fifth with a career-high third hit of the night. Three more runs were added thanks to back-to-back-to-back RBI doubles by Megan Bloodworth, Delgadillo, and Edwards. The final run came on a single by Davis.
The Utes added two runs in the sixth, but their efforts fell short.
Meylan picked up the win in the circle and improved to 20-7, pitching for seven innings with 10 strikeouts and four hits allowed. This marks her sixth double-digit strikeout performance of the season and moved her into the top 15 on the OSU single season strikeout list. Utah’s Brooklyn Carreon took the loss, falling to 3-10.
Offensive standouts for the Cowgirls included Timm (3-for-4 with a double and a run), Wark (1-for-3 with a home run and two RBIs) and Delgadillo (2-for-3 with an RBI and two runs).
The Cowgirls return to action at 2 p.m. tomorrow for the second game of the series. The game will be live streamed on ESPN+ and can be heard on the Varsity Network app.
