In a landmark moment for the University of Oklahoma, the Sooners softball team has achieved the No. 1 ranking in the latest Softball America Top 25 Poll — the first time in the program’s storied history that it has reached the top of this prestigious national list.
The Sooners’ ascent to the top comes after a season of dominance, marked by impressive victories over ranked opponents, consistent performances on both offense and defense, and a team chemistry that has made them nearly unstoppable on the field. With an outstanding win-loss record, Oklahoma has clearly established itself as a powerhouse this season.
“This is a proud moment for our program,” said head coach Patty Gasso. “The players have worked tirelessly, stayed focused, and played with heart. Being named No. 1 is a huge honor, and it’s a reflection of their dedication and passion for the game.”
Oklahoma has showcased an explosive offense, with multiple players contributing to a high team batting average and home run tally. Their pitching staff has been just as dominant, frequently shutting down some of the best lineups in the country.
The No. 1 ranking by Softball America adds to the growing excitement as the Sooners head into postseason play with national title hopes. The team’s balance, depth, and experience make them strong contenders for the NCAA championship.
This historic milestone not only celebrates the success of the 2025 team but also highlights the strength and tradition of the Oklahoma softball program — a legacy built over decades and now shining brighter than ever.
