College Rankings: This Week’s ESPN/USA Softball Top 25 (Feb. 25, 2025)

The Oklahoma Sooners (14-0) climb one spot to secure the top position in the Week 3 ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 Poll after an undefeated weekend at home, including run-rule victories over Tulsa and Abilene Christian.

Texas (15-1) drops one spot to No. 2 after a 4-1 weekend in Arizona, where they suffered their first loss of the season to then-No. 20 Stanford. The Longhorns picked up four wins during the week, including a ranked win against then-No. 11 Arizona and additional run-rule wins over Colorado State and UC-Davis.

Florida (18-1) remains in the No. 3 position following a perfect 5-0 outing at the Sun Devil Classic, outscoring their opponents 62-9 while securing three run-rule victories along the way.

Coming out of Week 3 with a 5-1 record, the UCLA Bruins (14-2) remain at No. 4 following five ranked wins at the Mary Nutter Classic — and a tough loss to then-No. 14 Duke in their final matchup of the weekend.

Texas A&M (15-1) returns to the Top 5 after an undefeated weekend in Tallahassee, Fla., highlighted by back-to-back wins over then-No. 8 Florida State.
