Oklahoma wins NCAA softball title

Paige Parker pitched a complete game to help Oklahoma devaluable feat Auburn, 2-1, in Oklahoma City for its third NCAA softball title.

Parker put the Tigers down in order in the seventh to improve to 5-0 at the Women’s College World Series.

Auburn’s Emily Carosone, the star of Tuesday’s comeback win with a grand slam in the bottom of the eighth, couldn’t follow it up.

In the bottom of the first, she committed an error on a grounder by Shay Knighten, and Caleigh Clifton scored for the Sooners (57-8) when Carosone lost control of a throw to first. Knighten then scored on a slow-bouncing infield single by Fale Aviu to make it 2-0.

Auburn (58-12) loaded the bases with no outs in the third, but Parker struck out Carosone, then the Sooners turned a double play to get out of the inning unscathed.

Jade Rhodes’ solo shot in the top of the fourth made it 2-1, but Parker regained control.

The camp for Super Bowl most player Von Miller rejected a contract proposal that would have made him the highest-paid nonquarterback in NFL history, a person familiar with the matter told the Associated Press.

The person, who was not authorized to speak on the matter, said Miller’s representatives rejected a six-year, $114.5-million offer from the Denver Broncos that included $39.8 million in guarantees in the first two years.

A state appeals court has rejected U.S. women’s soccer team goalkeeper Hope Solo’s request to avoid trial on misdemeanor domestic violence charges.

Solo was accused of being intoxicated and assaulting her sister and 17-year-old nephew in the incident. Her lawyer has said Solo was a victim in the altercation.
