Through four games of the new season, the Sooners already have two wins where they\u2019ve taken the lead late with big swings.<\/p>\n
No. 3 Oklahoma softball left the state of Arizona with a 3-1 record after a season-opening victory at Arizona State followed by a best-of-three series win at No. 18 Arizona. The bookend games of the trip were highlighted by late-inning comeback victories where the Sooners utilized big swings to earn wins.<\/p>\n
