After claiming the 2019 NCAA Oxford Regional, the Ole Miss softball team heads to Tucson, Arizona, for their second Super Regional appearance in program history.
The Rebels will face the 45-12 Arizona Wildcats in a best-of-three series starting Friday afternoon. The Wildcats entered the tournament as a No. 6 seed and went 3-0 in their regional with wins over Harvard and Auburn.
While softball has gained a nice following in Oxford with Mike Smith guiding the Rebels to four-straight NCAA Tournaments, the program has been a staple at Arizona for decades. The Wildcat softball team has not missed the tournament since 1987 and have advanced to Super Regionals every year for the past 15 years except 2013.
