Four-time reigning national champion Oklahoma returns to the Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City aiming to defend its title. The 2025 NCAA softball tournament begins on Thursday at Devon Park as the WCWS kicks off with eight teams competing for a national title.
Oklahoma, the favorite to win its ninth WCWS title under coach Patty Gasso, is one of five SEC teams in the tournament, along with Florida, Ole Miss, Tennessee and Texas, which was swept by the Sooners in the championship series last year. Led by two-time All-American pitcher NiJaree Canady, Texas Tech joins Ole Miss as first-time WCWS participants. Meanwhile, UCLA seeks to add another national title to its Division I-leading total of 13 championships.
The double-elimination tournament determines who advances to the championship series, where the final two teams face off in a best-of-three showdown. For the complete schedule and results for every matchup, follow along right here at CBS Sports.
