The Iowa State softball team played its final game against Oklahoma on Monday. 

The Cyclones fell to the No. 2 Sooners, 9-1.

Iowa State got its first and only run in the top of the first inning when Sami Williams led off with a double and would score on a Sydney Stites single. The Cyclones took a 1-0 lead. 

That lead did not last long. The Sooners exploded in the bottom of the first inning, scoring seven runs off of Iowa State’s starting pitcher Emma Hylen. 

Hylen got the first batter out, but then gave up four hits and three walks and allowed seven runs to score. Brianna Weilbacher would enter to pitch with two outs in the first inning.  

From there, it was all Oklahoma. 

It was three up and three down for the Iowa State offense in the top of the second inning. 

Oklahoma scored two more runs in the bottom of the second off a two-run home run, giving the Sooners a 9-1 lead. 

The Cyclones could not get the offense going for the rest of the game and would lose in five innings due to the mercy rule. 

Weilbacher pitched three inning and one out, giving up two runs on three hits and she had one strikeout. 

The Cyclones will play the University of Northern Iowa on Wednesday at 4 p.m.
