Texas Tech fans thrilled with win over Longhorns in 2025 WCWS Finals Game 2

Texas Tech softball fans have absolutely every possible right to be over the moon with how Game 2 of the 2025 Women’s College World Series championship series went. We just saw Gerry Glasco’s Texas Tech Red Raiders go out and get a win over the Texas Longhorns in what was an emotionally-exhausting and absolutely fascinating game to watch. 

The win over Texas kept the season alive (and the Red Raiders definitely should be thankful for the way NiJaree Canady performed here to make that possible) while also putting Texas Tech in position to be just one win away from claiming a national title.

That’s all that’s left here. One more win. One win over the Texas Longhorns. Just one game and the Red Raiders will be able to head back to Lubbock and celebrate with ease. And that in and of itself is something that we can sit back and enjoy and celebrate a bit.

This is what Texas Tech fans are saying after the Red Raiders held on to their lead and handed the Longhorns a 4-3 defeat in the 2025 Women’s College World Series:

I included a couple of tweets from the NCAA in there because they absolutely have to be thrilled with how things are shaping up in this competition here. This is some of the most thrilling college softball action I’ve seen in a while.

The Red Raiders are so dang close to claiming a national title. So dang close. There is so much to celebrate in that fact alone. But if Texas Tech could find a way to get one more win? Well then that’s a whole different ballgame. That’s a national title that would be headed back to Lubbock.

One more game. One more win. That's all the Red Raiders need at this point.
