Four Oklahoma softball players were named NFCA All-Americans on Wednesday.

Sophomore utility player Ella Parker and sophomore outfielder Kasidi Pickering were named to the first team.

Senior right-hander Sam Landry was named to the second team and freshman shortstop Gabbie Garcia made the third team.

Parker was named an All-American for the second time in her career, while this is the first time the others have been awarded.

Pickering is hitting .413 on the season and her 18 home runs and 56 RBIs each rank second on the team.

Landry has been the ace of the OU pitching staff this year, compiling a 23-4 record with a 1.92 earned run average.

Garcia has been a constant in the middle of the Sooners lineup this season, leading the team in home runs while also flashing the leather at shortstop.

The Sooners (50-7) will face Tennessee (45-15) at 1:30 p.m. Thursday at Devon Park in Oklahoma City on ESPN.
