After winning the 2017 West Coast Conference title to secure the 2017 NCAA Regionals automatic bid, No. 20 BYU softball will head to the Salt Lake City Regional, starting with a matchup against Mississippi State on Thursday.
“We are excited to be in the NCAA tournament again," BYU head coach Gordon Eakin said. "We look forward to playing quality teams in our own backyard."
The Cougars (44-11, 14-1 WCC) are making their 13th-consecutive NCAA Regionals appearance and 14th in program history. They won the WCC championship for the fourth-straight year, the ninth title in a row overall spanning four different conferences.
