Catching Up With Oklahoma Softball Commit Kadey McKay
Caddo softball star Kadey McKay has committed to play for Patty Gasso and Oklahoma, but she’s not satisfied with that.
Caddo is riding a string of four straight state championships under coach Dustin McKay — Kadey’s dad — and went 41-1 in fastpitch ball last spring.
At OU last year, the Sooners were 61-1 and won their third straight national championship.
“OU has played on the same field as I’ve played on,” she said. That’s what is crazy to me. I just want to go out there in that OU uniform and see what I can do out there. I’m going to have to work for it. For sure. But I’m excited and ready.”
VYPE Plus caught up with the McKays as they were beginning preparation for the upcoming fall season:

With the mid-morning Oklahoma summer heat already beating down, Caddo softball coach Dustin McKay and his shortstop Kadey Lee McKay were at the field mowing, raking and manicuring it to perfection.
“Let’s go up to my office out of the heat,” said Dustin, who went and grabbed us all a bottle of water before we made our way to his office which is one flight of stairs above field level beyond a fence down the right field line.
“We’ve got six more fields to mow before Kadey and I have to go to travel ball later today.”
Against that backdrop, I started my talk with the highly successful Lady Bruins softball coach and his daughter, who has verbally committed to play softball at the University of Oklahoma following her senior year.
Caddo has evolved into something of a juggernaut in Oklahoma high school softball, winning four state titles in a row. That’s two straight in fastpitch and slowpitch. During that run, the Lady Bruins have compiled an impressive 156-13 record including a 41-1 mark during their 2022 state title run in fastpitch.
