How Nicole Overcame the Comparison Game

Loved watching her pitch, doesn't hurt that she's gorgeous as well. Thank you Ms. May for ALL the wonderful games!!

She will be missed. That entire SR class. Thank you Nicole for all the great years.

Four years. Four rock solid years. And not once did you let your team down or disappoint sooner nation. You are forever sooner royalty.

Always my favorite pitcher. Her "mound presence" was superb and commanding. I guess it's "circle presence" in softball! 🙂

The final game of the 2024 WCWS against Texas illustrates this point beautifully. Karlie Keeney starts out the game, Paytn Monticelli is brought in to get one, critical out, Lefty K. Deal got a couple of important innings to bridge to Nicole May, a righty, before K-Max came on to close down the Longhorn hitters. It was a coaching masterpiece by Jen Rocha. The Sooner pitchers kept the Texas hitters at bay - just enough. It seems that the era of the staff "ace" will be replaced by complementary pitching staffs to keep everyone fresh, and batters honest.
