Who won WCWS Most Outstanding Player? Texas softball's Teagan Kavan wins 2025 award
After two knocks on the door, Texas softball finally broke it down at the Women's College World Series by winning its first national championship title against No. 12 Texas Tech. A big reason the Longhorns were able to put together a national championship run was sophomore ace Teagan Kavan. Advertisement Following Texas' 10-4 rout over Texas Tech at Devon Park in Oklahoma City on June 6, Kavan was named the Most Outstanding Player of the WCWS. She beat out her third baseman Mia Scott − who broke the game wide open in the bottom of the fourth inning with a grand slam − for the award. REQUIRED READING: Who won WCWS championship? Longhorns earn first title in school history in dominant Game 3 "It means the world. I'm so happy for this team. We did it, first natty, let's go," Kavan told ESPN's Holly Rowe after the game. "My grandma, the last thing she told my brother, one of the last things was to bring home a victory. We did that for her. It's really so precious." Advertisement The sophomore right-hander set a new WCWS pitching record on June 7, as she threw 31 2/3 scoreless innings across seven outings. In those seven games pitched, Kavan started four of them and was rewarded with the win in each. Kavan had a heavy heart for much of the WCWS, as she lost her grandmother − who is the reason she wears No. 17 on her jersey − right before Texas' 4-2 win over No. 2 Oklahoma on May 31. In the best-of-three WCWS championship series, Kavan went 2-0 in the circle while striking out six batters. She came out in relief in Game 2 on June 5 for Texas to get the final two outs of the bottom of the sixth inning. Kavan's efforts in the circle down in Oklahoma City helped Texas become the first team since Florida State in 2018 to win its first-ever WCWS national championship title.

National Champs! Texas softball slams Red Raiders in WCWS final, 10-4
National Champs! Texas softball slams Red Raiders in WCWS final, 10-4 For the first time in program history, the Texas Longhorns softball team are National Champions. This was UT's eight trip to the Women's College World Series. The Horns jumped all over Texas Tech ace NiJaree Canady for five runs in the first inning and never looked back. Canady had pitched every inning since the Super Regionals for the Red Raiders, but she looked fatigued when the game started. Her pitches looked flat and the spin rate was down. The Longhorns capitalized. With runners on first and second and one out, Texas catcher Reese Atwood singled through to right side to score Kayden Henry. Katie Stewart then drove in another run on a single. Finally, Leighann Goode drove a three-run home run to center off Canady. It was Goode's fourth home run of the postseason and the 10th of the season. That was it for Canady. Tech coach Gerry Glasco pulled the star pitcher and put in Chloe Riassetto. Meanwhile, Texas ace Teagen Kavan cruised through four innings of scoreless softball. In the bottom of the fourth, Texas' Mia Scott smashed a grand slam deep to center field off Riassetto to give the Longhorns a 10-run lead. Tech was suddenly in danger of having the run rule invoked. The run rule or "mercy rule" activates if a team leads by eight runs or more after five innings. But the Red Raiders fought back with three runs in the top of the fifth on a Scott throwing error. The Red Raiders still still in danger of being run ruled if UT scored one more run in the bottom of fifth or sixth innings. But Texas Tech pitcher Samantha Lincoln held the Longhorns bats at bay. A third Longhorns error in the top of the seventh inning helped Tech score another run. Texas had an obstruction call overturned get the second out. Kavan got Tech's Lauren Allred to ground out for the third out and the national title. The Texas players mobbed Kavan on the mound for a well-earned celebration.
