One of the most anticipated days of the college softball calendar has come and gone — and with it, a bracket has now been set.
The 2025 NCAA softball tournament field was officially finalized Sunday, with 64 teams from across the country learning where and who they’ll be playing as they chase a spot in the Women’s College World Series — and, from there, potentially a national championship.

The group of invitees was perhaps unsurprisingly dominated by the SEC, which saw 14 of its 15 teams make the NCAA tournament — Missouri was the only exclusion — while earning seven of the top eight seeds to the event.
Who got in? What teams will be hosting in the regional round? And when will games be taking place when the tournament begins later this week?
Here’s a look at the bracket and schedule for the 2025 NCAA softball tournament:
