NORMAN β Minutes following the top-ranked OU softball team's 10-2 walk-off win over Georgia on Friday night, Athletes Unlimited Softball League commissioner Kim Ng presented a "Golden Ticket" for the league's draft.
OU infielder Ailana Agbayani was selected in the draft, which features a minimum of two rounds with six players in each but will find out which team she's headed to on May 4.
For players selected in Round 2 or later that do not sign, the drafting team shall receive a supplemental pick at the end of that particular round in the next yearβs draft.
Agbayani, the daughter of former New York Mets star Benny Agbayani, entered Friday night hitting .409 with six home runs and 29 RBIs.
"About a month ago, we had our draft and so anybody who's drafted is presented a golden ticket," AUSL commissioner Kim Ng said Friday night. "But these are selections made by our six general managers, and with help from their staffs. A lot of work really goes into making these decisions.
"Obviously, there are a lot of great players out there, but this process takes months."
The 2026 AUSL College Draft will air live at 6 p.m. on May 4 on ESPN2.
