Belmont, Mercer, North Florida, Saint Louis, and Santa Clara made their NCAA Division I softball tournament debuts.[3] The Southeastern Conference (SEC) had an NCAA tournament record 14 teams selected for the tournament.[4]

The No. 1 overall seed, Texas A&M, was defeated by Liberty in the College Station regional. This marked the first time a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament failed to advance to the Super Regionals since the NCAA tournament began seeding in 2005.[5]

Format

edit

A total of 64 teams entered the tournament, with 31 of them receiving an automatic bid by either winning their conference's tournament or by finishing in first place in their conference. The remaining 33 bids were at-large, with selections extended by the NCAA Selection Committee.[6]

There are two rounds of the NCAA Division I softball tournament, Regionals and Super Regionals, followed by the Women's College World Series.[7] Each regional round follows a four-team, double-elimination format. Winners of regional rounds compete in best-of-three Super Regional series to determine the eight teams that advance to the Women's College World Series. The World Series also follows a double-elimination format followed by a best-of-three finals series to determine the winner.[8]

Bids

edit

The West Coast Conference bid was awarded to the regular-season champion. All other conferences had their automatic bid go to the conference tournament winner.[9] The SEC championship game was canceled due to inclement weather; Oklahoma received the conference's automatic bid due to being the highest remaining seed in the SEC tournament.[10]
