Oklahoma Softball named NFCA Coaching Staff of the Year

After another dominant run and a second-straight national championship, the Oklahoma Sooners softball program received another honor as the NFCA coaching staff of the year.

The Sooners coaching staff of head coach Patty Gasso, associate head coach Jennefer Rocha, assistant coach J.T. Gasso, and volunteer assistant Kristin Zaleski were instrumental in Oklahoma’s season-long run as the No. 1 team in the nation.

Known for their offensive prowess, the Sooners dominated from the circle in 2022 as well, leading the country in earned run average and shutouts. From the plate, the Sooners finished the season ranked first in home runs, batting average, slugging, on-base percentage, and runs per game according to SoonerSports.com.

They were simply dominant in every facet of the game as they jumped out to an NCAA-record 38-0 start to the 2022 season. Jordy Bahl, Hope Trautwein, and Nicole May combined for 33 shutouts and eight no-hitters on the season.

Oklahoma’s offense dominated leading the Sooners to 41 run-rule wins on their way to a 58-3 record and their sixth national championship.
