OU Softball: Oklahoma Will Use Alternate Helmets at NCAA Regional
No. 1 Oklahoma will have a new look this weekend.
The Sooners will wear an alternate batting helmet logo during their softball NCAA Tournament games at Marita Hynes Field, it was announced Thursday.
The new logo is actually a throwback decal to 2013, when OU softball paid tribute to those affected by the May 2013 tornado that devastated Moore.
The decal utilizes the light blue of the Oklahoma state flag on the state outline with the word "HOME" written across it, and the state emblem in place of the O.
OU opens NCAA Tournament play on Friday at 4 p.m. against Hofstra. The other regional teams are Missouri and Cal. Games continue Saturday and Sunday.
The Sooners are 51-1 and have won 43 consecutive games this season as they try to win their third straight national championship.
