Tom Brady's niece, Maya, struggled at the plate on Saturday in the women's College World Series as Oklahoma edged past UCLA 1-0.

Maya, a shortstop, struck out three times and went 0-4 at the plate in a difficult day for the Bruins.

The game was not an elimination game for UCLA, though their path towards a national championship is certainly tougher.


Maya was born to Maureen Brady - Tom's sister - and Brian Timmons.

Maureen was an All-American pitcher at Fresno State and Maya's aunt, Julie Brady, is married to two- World Series winner Kevin Youkilis - who won both of his titles with the Boston Red Sox.

Tiare Jennings' solo homer in the third inning provided all the scoring for the second-seeded Sooners (56-6).

Freshman Kaitlyn Terry and sophomore Taylor Tinsley combined to allow just four hits for No. 6 UCLA, which saw its winning streak end at 14 games. The Bruins (43-11) will play in an elimination game Sunday against Stanford.
