Editor's note: This story has been changed to note the military inspiration of Micheala Edenfield's eye makeup.

Michaela Edenfield is known on social media for her razzle-dazzle eye makeup.

Her theme before Game 2 of the Women's College World Series championship series called to mind one of her opponents.

The Florida State softball catcher has a following on TikTok for her makeup tutorials. She bedazzles her eyes for each game with colorful and gem-studded looks.

Before Thursday night's must-win game, the sophomore from Sneads, Florida showed off her green, brown, tan and black look that bears a striking resemblance to the camo headband worn by Jordy Bahl, the star pitcher for Oklahoma who pitched a two-hit shutout the night before.

"You should get the memo by now," Edenfield said near the end of the video as the look was nearly complete.

Some of Edenfield's followers made the connection. "Officially Twinsies with Jordy Bahl," user Myla Mae replied.

Thursday was Military Appreciation Night

Was it a direct reference to Bahl's headband? Not quite: According to Florida State softball's spokesman Tim Hofmann, Thursday night was Military Appreciation Night at the USA Softball Hall of Fame Complex.

ESPN featured Edenfield's custom makeup routine during the semifinal round against Tennessee.

ESPN reporter Holly Rowe mentioned Edenfield likes to feature space or star themes in reference to "Area 51," where the Seminoles slugger launches many of her home runs. Her 13 dingers lead the team.
