Can Oklahoma make history and become the first softball program to four-peat? Or will someone dethrone the Sooners?
The road to the 2024 Women's College World Series has officially begun. For the first time since 2018, Oklahoma did not get the top seed in the NCAA softball tournament. Instead, regional play will begin in Austin with No. 1 Texas. The Sooners are the No. 2 seed.
On Friday, the hot bats for Miami (OH) were cooled off as Virginia beat the RedHawks 7-0. Elsewhere, both No. 11 Georgia and No. 13 Louisiana showed its prowess with big wins in just five innings.
We continue to break down each regional and provide you with schedule updates, scores and how to watch the NCAA tournament.
