Following Texas' 10-4 rout over Texas Tech at Devon Park in Oklahoma City on June 6, Kavan was named the Most Outstanding Player of the WCWS. The West Des Moines, Iowa, native beat out her third baseman Mia Scott − who broke the game wide open in the bottom of the fourth inning with a grand slam − for the award.

Teagan Kavan capped a brilliant run, pitching the Longhorns to a 10-4 win against Texas Tech in Game 3 of the WCWS finals for Texas' first NCAA softball title.
