Moderators Blake Munroe Posted May 13 Author Moderators Share Posted May 13 Here’s the release from Texas: AUSTIN, Texas – For the 24th time in program history, The University of Texas' softball program will participate in the NCAA Division I Softball Championship as the Longhorns were not only selected as one of the 16 regional host programs but also as the tournament's number one overall seed for the first time in the program's history. The number one ranking is the highest by a Texas softball program since earning the third seed for the 2011 tournament. Sunday's honor also marked the first time the program has earned a national seed — one through 16 — in back-to-back seasons since 2012 and 2013. The 2013 campaign capped a four-year stretch that saw the Longhorns be seeded 7 (2010), 3 (2011), 6 (2012) and 4 (2013). Texas, which is 23-2 at home to this point of the 2024 season, will open the 2024 NCAA Austin Regional on Friday, May 17 when the Longhorns take on the Siena Saints, which won their first-ever MAAC Championship by winning four games in four days as the tournament's sixth seed, at 3 p.m. CT on the Longhorn Network. Additionally in the bracket, St. Francis (Pa.) will travel back to Red & Charline McCombs Field for the first time since the 2021 NCAA Austin Regional as the Red Flash, which have qualified for the NCAA Division I Softball Championship in six of the last seven seasons, knocked off Central Connecticut, 12-0, to win the Northeast Conference Championship and earn the regional's third seed. The Red Flash will take on Northwestern, the second seed in the regional, at 5:30 p.m. CT Friday, May 17, when the game will be streamed on ESPN+. The Wildcats, guided by three-time Big Ten Coach of the Year Kate Drohan, won their third consecutive Big Ten regular season championship after going 19-3 in conference play and winning all eight conference series for the second season in a row. This weekend will mark the first time Northwestern have traveled to Austin for postseason play since the 2012 season, when the Longhorns reeled off four consecutive elimination victories to win the regional. The winner of the Austin Regional will advance to face the winner of the College Station Regional, which is hosted by Texas A&M and also features Texas State, for a three-game series that begins on Friday, May 24. NCAA Austin Regional Schedule Friday, May 17 Game 1 – No. 4 Siena (33-20) vs. No. 1 Texas (47-7), 3 PM – Longhorn Network Game 2 – No. 3 St. Francis (40-12) vs. No. 2 Northwestern (33-11), 5:30 PM – ESPN+ Saturday, May 18 Game 3 – Winner Game 2 vs. Winner Game 1, 12 PM – TBD Game 4 – Loser Game 1 vs. Loser Game 2, 2:30 PM – TBD Game 5 – Winner Game 4 vs. Loser Game 3, 5 PM – TBD Sunday, May 19 Game 6 – Winner Game 5 vs. Winner Game 3, TBD – TBD Game 7 (if necessary) – Winner Game 6 vs. Loser Game 6, TBD – TBD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
