The stage is set at the 2024 Women’s College World Series. Eight teams will compete for the title in Oklahoma City.
Four teams return from last season’s WCWS – Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Stanford and Alabama. The Sooners are eyeing their fourth straight title, but they aren’t necessarily the favorites this year. Texas secured the No. 1 overall seed despite falling to its Red River rivals in the Big 12 championship.
There’s plenty of time for upsets, though. After all, that’s how Duke and Alabama got out of the super regionals.
Heading into the WCWS, UCLA makes a strong case for the title, winning the final Pac-12 championship. The Bruins won it all in 2019. Don’t count out Florida, either. The Gators battled back to defeat Baylor in three games. They’re led by Skylar Wallace, who may be the most outstanding player in the tournament. During Game 1, the redshirt senior became Division I’s all-time career runs leader with 303 (and counting).
The tournament is almost over, but there’s plenty of softball left with the Women’s College World Series. It all begins May 30 as the remaining eight teams battle it out in the double-elimination bracket. Here’s everything to know to watch, including schedule and TV information.
