Rising senior outfielders Dasan Harris and Jason Walk will be returning to OU.

Harris posted a "RUN IT BACK" graphic on X, while OU baseball announced on the social platform that Walk will be returning as well.

Harris was instrumental in the Sooners' road to winning the 2026 College World Series, a spot on the all-tournament team. He tied for a team-high eight runs batted in while he recorded a .360 batting average with nine hits and two home runs in the CWS. He hit a solo home run in the Sooners’ walk-off victory over No. 2 overall seed Georgia Tech in regionals. He finished the season leading the team with a .361 batting average.

Walk also earned a spot on the CWS all-tournament team for his steady play for the Sooners. He finished the season on a team-high 23-game reached base streak and 15-game hitting streak. He hit two home runs and recorded four runs batted in and four stolen bases in the CWS. He tied a CWS high with four stolen bases. He had his first career multi-home-run game vs. No. 3 overall seed Georgia in the CWS semifinals.

Rising senior pitcher Gavyn Jones also posted on X his intent to "run it back." He pitched two innings against Georgia Tech in regionals, only giving up one hit, while striking out three. He tied a career high with four strikeouts in 2.1 scoreless innings in Game 2 of the CWS Championship Series against No. 5 overall seed North Carolina.
