Oklahoma Chasing Several Team, Individual Offensive Records

Here's a look at where the Sooners stand as they pursue several notable records.

Even with the frenetic pace Oklahoma started the season offensively, the Sooners hitting 200 home runs seemed somewhat preposterous just a few weeks ago.

The 2021 OU squad set the NCAA record for home runs in a season with 161, and beating that record seemed possible — maybe even probable — but running away with it seemed unlikely.

But through two weekends of SEC play, the Sooners are already at 129 home runs — third place in program history and seventh place in NCAA history — and a run at 200 seems like much less of a longshot.

Oklahoma has 21 games remaining, plus the SEC Tournament and the postseason, which was 11 additional games last season even with the cancellation of the SEC Tournament.

The Sooners hit 10 more home runs in the series sweep over Ole Miss that ended Monday. 

Freshman Kendall Wells hit three of those home runs, extending her national lead to 25, two ahead of UCLA’s Megan Grant. Grant hit two home runs in the Bruins’ sweep of Rutgers over the weekend.

UCLA joined the Sooners in reaching triple digits in home runs, hitting three in Monday’s win over the Scarlet Knights to hit 100 on the season.

Wells is currently tied for eighth place in OU history for home runs in a season, and is five away from tying the NCAA record for home runs by a freshman. Three players have hit 30 in their freshman seasons, including the Sooners’ Jocelyn Alo and Lauren Chamberlain.

It seems all but certain, barring injury, that Wells will reach that mark.

She could also make a run at Alo’s program record of 34 or even the NCAA mark of 37 set by Laura Espinoza in 1995.

Oklahoma (32-2, 6-0 SEC) resumes its season at LSU at 6 p.m. Friday with the opener of a three-game set.

There are plenty more records, either program or national, the Sooners are chasing this season and with the season just past its midpoint, its time to start tracking those more closely.

Through 34 games, here’s where the Sooners stand in their pursuit of a handful of program and national records:
