Multiple Oklahoma Softball Outfielders Transfer to Texas A&M, Nebraska

Several notable softball and baseball transfers have been announced for the 2026 season across prominent college programs. Former Oklahoma Sooner outfielder Maya Bland is transferring to Texas A&M, where she is expected to have increased playing time after contributing clutch hits and home runs during her tenure at Oklahoma. Bland's departure coincides with a crowded Oklahoma outfield roster, including incoming top recruit Kai Minor, prompting her move to the Aggies. Additionally, Oklahoma outfielder Hannah Coor, a teammate of Nebraska's Jordy Bahl during their national title runs, has committed to Nebraska, bringing strong defensive skills and experience to their outfield lineup. In baseball, Iowa has added Bryce Phelps, a standout outfielder from Wagner College, who had a breakout 2025 season and is poised to strengthen Iowa's roster. These transfers highlight the strategic roster enhancements programs are making to compete at a high level next season.
