BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The Texas A&M softball team has secured the No. 1 overall seed in the 2025 NCAA Tournament, as announced during the selection show on May 11, 2025. This marks a significant milestone for the Aggies, who will host the 2025 Bryan-College Station Regional at Davis Diamond, starting Friday, May 16.

As the top seed, A&M will compete against three teams in their regional: Marist, boasting a record of 47 wins, 7 losses, and 1 tie; Liberty, with 47 wins and 12 losses; and Saint Francis, which has a record of 26 wins and 24 losses. The Aggies are paired with the Eugene Regional, featuring the No. 16 national seed Oregon (47-7), Stanford (40-11), Binghamton (36-12), and Weber State (28-30). The winners of the two regionals will face off in a best-of-three super regional scheduled for May 22-25, with the ultimate goal of advancing to the Women’s College World Series (WCWS).

The Women’s College World Series is set to take place from May 29 to June 5/6 at Devon Park in Oklahoma City. Texas A&M’s softball program has claimed an impressive record of 45 wins and 9 losses this season, with a notable conference record of 16-7 in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). This achievement makes the current season one of the most successful in the history of A&M softball, highlighted by single-digit losses for the first time since their run to the WCWS in 2017.

Throughout the season, the Aggies have demonstrated their strength, achieving a remarkable 20-3 record in games played away from home. They have also been ranked No. 1 in national polls on two occasions and maintained the top position in Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) for most of the season, while contending with the second toughest schedule nationwide. Their selection as the top seed was reinforced by dominant performances in the SEC Tournament, where they earned victories over two top-10 RPI teams.

One key highlight was a semifinal win over their rival Texas, securing their position in the SEC Tournament final. However, due to adverse weather conditions, the final was canceled, resulting in Texas A&M and Oklahoma being declared co-champions of the conference.

Texas A&M has achieved a remarkable streak of 23 consecutive years participating in the NCAA Tournament. Last season, the Aggies fell just short of their goal, losing in the Austin Super Regional against Texas, which has served as motivation for the current team. The coaching staff and players are eager to convert last season’s disappointment into a successful postseason run.

The Aggies are set to face a new challenge in this year’s tournament, and with their strong record and previous experiences, they are poised to make a deep run into the postseason. The excitement among players and fans is palpable as they prepare to kick off their quest for another championship at the Bryan-College Station Regional.
