Following their runner-up finish in the Big Ten Tournament on Saturday, the Ohio State softball team had to stay up late on Sunday to learn whether or not their postseason run would continue into the NCAA tournament. Fortunately for Kelly Kovach Schoenly’s Buckeyes, it will, as the softball team is headed to Knoxville, TN for regional play this weekend.
The four teams in the region will be No. 8 Tennessee, Longwood, USC Upstate, and OSU. Each NCAA softball regional is setup as a double-elimination tournament, with one winner moving on to the best-of-three super regionals the following week.
