Texas Faces Nebraska in Elimination Game at Women's College World Series

The defending national champion Texas Longhorns take on Nebraska in a win-or-go-home contest at the Women's College World Series, with the elimination game scheduled for 3 p.m. ET on Sunday at Devon Park in Oklahoma City. The second-seeded Longhorns and fourth-seeded Cornhuskers meet for the third time this season, having split two matchups at the UTSA Invitational before their initial 14-year absence of competition.

Texas Advances Past Mississippi State

Texas already secured survival in one elimination matchup, shutting out Mississippi State 4-0 on Friday to remain in contention. Outfielder Kayden Henry recorded multiple hits in the victory, while first baseman Kaiah Altmeyer drove in two of the team's four runs. The Longhorns will look to pitcher Teagan Kavan to lead their pitching rotation in Sunday's critical contest.

Nebraska Faces Uphill Battle After Alabama Loss

Nebraska's path to Sunday's game proved more challenging than Texas's. The Cornhuskers opened the tournament with a walk-off victory over Arkansas but fell to top-seeded Alabama in Saturday's winners' bracket matchup. Pitcher Jordy Frahm struggled early, surrendering a three-run home run in the first inning that proved decisive in Alabama's victory and positioned Nebraska in the elimination bracket.

The Winner Advances to Semifinals

Sunday's victor will progress to Monday's WCWS semifinals to face seventh-seeded Tennessee, who defeated eleventh-seeded Texas Tech on Saturday with a ninth-inning solo home run from Emma Clarke. ABC will broadcast the elimination contest, with streaming available through the ESPN app with a TV login and Fubo, which offers a free trial to new subscribers.
