Alright, Longhorn faithful — it's that time of year when Oklahoma City becomes basically an Austin annexation, and the Texas softball squad is headed back to the Women's College World Series. The big question on every burnt orange fan's mind right now: who are the 'Horns going up against right out of the gate?
The bracket is set, and Texas has their first-round matchup locked in. If you've been following this team all season, you already know they've got the kind of roster that can make a deep run. The pitching staff has been dialed in, the bats have been coming alive at the right moments, and head coach Mike White has this group playing with serious purpose heading into OKC.
The Women's College World Series is always one of those events that reminds you just how electric college softball can be — and Texas fans travel like nobody's business. Expect a sea of burnt orange packing the stands at USA Softball Hall of Fame Stadium once again.
We'll have more details on the matchup and schedule as they shake out, but for now, dust off your cowboy hats and start planning that road trip north on I-35. The Longhorns are in it, and Austin is watching. Hook 'em.
