Supporting Champions and Leaders For Life

Starting in the fall of 2021, the Women of Championship Excellence initiative launched to create direct avenues for those who are passionate about supporting OU's women's programs. These avenues encompass anyone who contributes to the Women of Championship Excellence Fund or an established facility project in which female student-athletes train and compete. 

The mission of this initiative is to provide financial support and championship resources to OU women’s sports programs in their constant pursuit of excellence on the stages of competition and in life.
 What is the Women of Championship Excellence Fund? 
Each year, women's sports programs head coaches and administrators will identify greatest areas of need for OU female student-athletes. Areas of consideration will include, but are not limited to, personal and professional development, scholarship support and facility projects.


Changing the Game
Record attendance, consecutive sellouts, passionate followings, historic graduation rates and excellence on and off the field of competition. Our women's sports programs continue to set the standard for each of their respective sports. 

In 2021, the Oklahoma Women's Gymnastics and the Oklahoma Softball programs participated in the first ever collegiate gymnastics meet and softball game to air on the ABC. 

The softball game on May 29, 2021 against Washington drew over 900,000 viewers and was the second-highest viewed Super Regional softball game in history. In the 2021 season, Oklahoma Softball played in front of the largest television audience in Women's College World Series history and in front of the largest crowd for a collegiate softball game. 

Other accomplishments from Oklahoma student-athletes include:
  • Kaitlin Milligan (Women's Golf) accepting and invitation to play in the 2021 Augusta National Women's Amateur hosted at Augusta National.
  • Jazzy Richards (Soccer) was named the Class of 2020 Honda Inspiration Award winner
  • Women's Track and Field (3.43) and Volleyball (3.58) teams produced their highest cumulative GPAs in the 2021 spring semester. 
  • Madi Williams set the single-game scoring record on January 3, 2021 when she dropped 45 points against West Virginia. 
  • Three members of the Oklahoma Rowing team, Cameron Guild, Riley O'Neil and Amber Templin were recognized for earning a 4.0 GPA
