Oklahoma State softball won their season-opener against Florida State, 9-6. 

The two top-ranked teams opened play at the Puerto Vallarta College Challenge, and despite a late surge by the Seminoles, the Cowgirls were able to put up the W. 

Ruby Meylan delivered an impressive pitching debut, going 5 innings with 9 strikeouts and 2 earned runs. 

Tallen Edwards, Amanda Hasler, and Micaela Wark all hit homeruns for the Cowgirls as OSU very nearly run-ruled the Noles. 

Despite starting slow, Florida State showed some resilience with Jaysoni Beachum and Kennedy Harp both hitting home runs in the 7th inning, but the Seminoles fell short of a comeback. 

These teams will meet again to close out the Puerto Vallarta tournament on Feb. 8.

When Is The NCAA Softball Run Rule Used?
