The Women’s College World Series rolls into Monday, June 2, with the national semifinals starting!
The semifinals start with 2 teams looking to win and advance to the WCWS Finals. Those teams are Texas and Texas Tech, with both programs needing just one win to move on after taking down Oklahoma and Tennessee up against elimination.
The Sooners are trying to continue their reign of dominance in college softball, but were pushed to the loser’s bracket after falling to Texas. Oklahoma rebounded by knocking Oregon out of the WCWS on Sunday, setting up Monday’s game vs. Texas Tech.
The Lady Vols are in the semifinals after fighting their way through the loser’s bracket after an early loss to Oklahoma. Tennessee has since knocked off Florida and UCLA in elimination games to reach Monday’s semifinals.
