OSU Bullets

• Cowgirl Softball dropped a tough one in the final game against the Sooners. The TulsaWorld writes that softball is the best Bedlam in the business now:

Here are two teams separated by 80 miles and six spots in the top 7. Except it’s a lot closer than six spots. No. 7 OSU is closer to No. 1 OU’s equal than we thought, which means OSU is closer to national championship contention than we thought.

[TulsaWorld]

• OSU announced before yesterday’s softball game that all events are returning to full attendance

Oklahoma State is returning to full capacity for its remaining home sporting events.

• This list has a surprising Cowboy player as a top-five returning Big 12 player

• Cowboy golfer Zack Eckroat and the US won the Walker Cup

• A full-time nurse at 86 as the matriarch of the Smith Family (as in wrestling coach John Smith) makes an awful lot of sense.

Ever wonder why the Smith family is so successful? A close friend of mine’s wife worked with John’s mom as a delivery nurse up until she retired last fall. She was 86 years old, worked for 60 years, and was still working full time! That's a built-in toughness you can't teach. pic.twitter.com/mqv0t6BbXA

• Gosh this is cool about OSU’s new president:

As a mom of 6, OSU’s 19th president @drshrum juggles many hats.

She & her husband Darren always wanted a big family. After several miscarriages, the couple had 3 kids & later adopted 3 more from Ethiopia, completing their family. #HappyMothersDay ? https://t.co/pwNy1pSdZs pic.twitter.com/qThkAXMXNq
