NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Grant Stevens pitched seven strong innings, Jason Walk drove in two runs and Oklahoma defeated Duke 4-3 on Sunday to advance to the championship round of the Norman Regional at the NCAA Tournament.
Oklahoma (39-20) advanced to play UConn on Sunday night. UConn, which beat Oklahoma 4-1 on Saturday, would advance to the super regionals with a win. An Oklahoma victory would set up a winner-take-all game on Monday.
Stevens (6-1) pitched seven innings, allowing one run on six hits with seven strikeouts and two walks. Malachi Witherspoon got the final five outs for his fifth save.
Duke took a 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning on an RBI single by AJ Gracia.
In the Oklahoma second, Rocco Garza-Gongora singled up the middle for one run and Walk followed with a two-run triple to right center.
Oklahoma stretched its lead to 4-1 in the seventh when Easton Carmichael singled, advanced to second on a single by Jaxon Willits and scored when Michael Snyder singled to left and the runners advanced on a throwing error by the shortstop.
