The eight-team field, made up of (1) Texas, (2) Oklahoma, 4) Florida, (5) Oklahoma State, (6) UCLA, (8) Stanford, (10) Duke, and (16) Alabama, will converge on Oklahoma City for the biggest event in all of softball, starting on Thursday, May 30.
Oklahoma, the three-time defending champions, enter the weekend as the No. 2 seed and will have their toughest bracket to work through over their dominant run of success. Texas, Florida, Oklahoma State, and UCLA have all looked like teams capable of dethroning the Sooners, and Stanford and Duke have been near the top of the rankings all season long as well.
