STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Kiley Noami went 3 for 3 with a double, home run and four RBIs, Kelly Maxwell retired the first 19 batters she faced in a two-hitter and No. 6 national seed Oklahoma State beat Oregon 9-0 to sweep the best-of-three Stillwater Super Regional and advance to the Women’s College World Series. Oklahoma State, which beat the Ducks 8-1 in Game 1, has clinched a berth in its 15th WCWS, including four straight. Rachel Becker led off the game with a double to left and scored when Naomi hit a single to center that made it 1-0 in the top of the first and Maxwell had a perfect game through 6 1/3 innings before Allee Bunker’s single up the middle in the seventh.
