OKLAHOMA CITY – Tennessee softball will face Texas in the Women's College World Series semifinals for the second straight year.
The No. 7 seed Lady Vols (49-10) will play the No. 2 seed Longhorns (49-12) at Devon Park for a spot in the WCWS finals on June 1 (noon ET, ESPN). This year, the roles are reversed, though – Tennessee advanced to the semifinals without a loss, so it would have to be beaten twice on June 1 to be eliminated.
Texas, the reigning national champions, beat Nebraska 3-1 in an elimination game on May 31 to advance to the semifinals.
A win sends Tennessee to the best-of-three finals beginning June 3 (8 p.m., ESPN). The Lady Vols haven't played in a WCWS finals since 2013.
The Lady Vols are making their third appearance in the WCWS semifinals in the last four seasons.
Tennessee won 2-1 against No. 11 seed Texas Tech (58-8) in nine innings on May 30 to advance. It beat Texas with a 6-3 win in its opener on May 28.
The Lady Vols have made a run to the WCWS semifinals in two of the past three seasons. They were eliminated by the Longhorns last year in a 2-0 loss.
Before 2023, Tennessee hadn't been to Oklahoma City since 2015. The Lady Vols are also making a consecutive trip to the WCWS for the first time since 2012 and 2013.
