Kendall Wells: New Queen of the Homerun!
25 Apr
Summary
- Freshman Kendall Wells hit her 35th home run on Friday, breaking a program record.
- Wells' 35th homer also set the NCAA record for most home runs by a team.
- She is two home runs shy of the all-time NCAA season record.

Kendall Wells, a freshman phenom, has broken Oklahoma's single-season home run record, blasting her 35th homer of 2026 on Friday against Georgia. This milestone also established a new NCAA record for the most home runs by a team in a single season.
Wells had previously tied the program record of 34 home runs, a mark set by legendary Sooner Jocelyn Alo. She now stands just two home runs behind Laura Espinoza's NCAA record of 37, achieved in 1995. Wells has achieved this feat in just 49 games this season, with five regular-season contests remaining.
This record-breaking season for Wells includes setting the SEC single-season home run record and the NCAA Freshman Record earlier. She expressed that the recognition is surreal and that she tries to remain focused on the game rather than the statistics.
The Sooners are scheduled to play No. 15 Georgia and No. 11 Texas A&M before heading into the SEC and NCAA Tournaments.
