The Oklahoma Sooners remain atop the top-25 rankings according to D1Softball. The Sooners have been nothing short of dominant this season in softball. They are currently on a 34-game winning streak after only losing to Baylor on the road in February. They avenged that loss with a weekend sweep in Waco where the Sooners held the Bears scoreless in all three games.
They hold a record of 42-1 still and are the clear favorites to win the Women’s College World Series.
The Texas Longhorns had a fantastic weekend as well, taking down the Oklahoma State Cowgirls in a top 10 thriller in Austin. It was a tight showdown, but Texas came away with the sweep and moved into second place in the Big 12. After their weekend, they moved to No. 5 in D1Softball’s latest poll.
Oklahoma State fell to No. 8. UCLA is in the No. 2 slot followed by Tennessee, Florida State and Texas to round out the top five.

Despite being swept, the Baylor Bears remained in the top 15 and are the fourth Big 12 school in the top 25.
The Sooners have seven more games in the regular season and then play in Oklahoma City for the Big 12 Softball Championship, and then the postseason begins for the Sooners.
The Sooners have absolutely dominated the college softball season this year and are firmly in the driver’s seat to win the whole thing. There will be challengers along the way for Oklahoma’s crown but with the best offense and pitching staff in softball, it’s hard to envision anyone knocking off the back-to-back national champions.
