Kansas baseball's season concluded with a 13‑2 defeat to Oklahoma in the NCAA Super Regionals, completing a sweep that saw the Sooners dominate with ten combined runs in the second and sixth innings.
The Jayhawks managed only two runs, an RBI single from Jordan Bach in the second and a solo homer by Tyson LeBlanc in the eighth, while Oklahoma's offense surged early.
KU employed six pitchers — Mason Cook, Rianne Ritter, Boede Rahe, Toby Scheidt, Mathis Nayral and Emerson McKnight — who collectively struggled to contain the Sooners' rally.
A Season of Dominance
Despite the loss, the team finished the 2026 campaign with a 45‑18 record, having captured the Big 12 regular‑season title, the conference tournament and the NCAA Lawrence Regional championship.
