OKLAHOMA CITY — Friday was a crucial step in Patty Gasso’s early days as Team USA coach.
USA Softball staged a showcase at Devon Park pitting Team USA, primarily made of the 18 athletes selected to represent the Red, White and Blue at the 2025 World Games, and the USA All-Stars, which featured a number of collegiate stars as well as a handful of softball superstars who were not named to the World Games roster.
Team USA won both encounters, posting a 5-4 victory in Game 1 and a 10-9 win in Game 2, but the most valuable moments of the weekend came from both teams battling in the days leading up to the showcase in Gasso’s camp over a four day stretch.
