The championship series of the Women’s College World Series is poised for a dramatic finish after Texas Tech prevailed against Texas with a score of 4-3 in Game 2.

With bases loaded and two outs, Texas pitcher Cambria Salmon hit Alana Johnson, allowing Raegan Jennings to score. Later, a wild pitch from Salmon brought Mihyia Davis home, pushing Texas Tech ahead 2-0.

The Longhorns responded in the sixth inning, with Mia Scott hitting a solo home run off Nijaree Canady.
