They made the only decision that could be made. Play between Washington and UCLA was suspended then and there, one out in the fifth inning. Fans were sent to the exits. Players and coaches were sent to the basement of the stadium. Most of the gals from Oklahoma knew the drill.

Some like Fulton knew the drill too well. Some like Leah Gulla knew it not at all. The Sooners' other third baseman, Gulla isn't used to Oklahoma storms. Storms that build and growl and lumber across the plains. Storms that put a mighty hand on the forehead of the WCWS and bring it to a halt.
