Oklahoma, Kendall Wells make history against Georgia
Out at Love's Field, the Oklahoma Sooners put together another historic night at the plate in their opener against the Georgia Bulldogs. To lead off the second inning, freshman phenom Kendall Wells launched the first pitch she saw over the center field wall to make history.
It was home run No. 162 for the Sooners, setting a single-season NCAA home run record. It was also Wells 35th home run of the season, setting the single-season Oklahoma Sooners home run record, passing NCAA all-time leader Jocelyn Alo, who hit 34 home runs twice in a season.
Wells has been on an incredible pace all season long and didn't slow down in SEC play. She's hit 13 of her 34 home runs in 19 SEC games. She's now just three home runs away from setting the NCAA single-season home run record of 37 set by Laura Espinoza in 1995.
As a team, the Sooners have been incredible. Seven players have 10 or more home runs this season, and five players have 16 or more on the year, including Gabbie Garcia, who's hit two home runs against Georgia and is second on the team with 21 home runs. She's already surpassed her total of 20 home runs from the 2025 season, when she led the Sooners as a true freshman.
With eight more games remaining in the regular season plus postseason play, there's no telling where Oklahoma and Kendall Wells' home run records finish.
