College Rankings: This Week’s ESPN/USA Softball Top 25 (March 19, 2025)

The Oklahoma Sooners (26-0 / 6-0 SEC) remain undefeated to secure the No. 1 spot in the ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 Poll for the fourth-straight week after claiming the series sweep over then-No. 15 Arkansas – while also picking up a mid-week run-rule victory over Tulsa.

Following mid-week wins over Dayton and then-RV Ohio State, Texas (28-2 / 2-1 SEC) holds on to the No. 2 spot after claiming a 2-1 series win over then-No. 3 Florida – losing the final game of the series on Monday.

Coming out of Week 6 with a 4-0 record, the LSU Tigers (27-1 / 3-0 SEC) move up one spot in the poll after an undefeated three-game series against then-RV Kentucky and a single win over Louisiana earlier in the week.

Florida (27-4 / 2-3 SEC) drops to No. 4 after suffering a 1-2 series loss to then-No. 2 Texas, despite picking up a mid-week win over then-RV UCF.

Closing out the leaderboard at No. 5 is the UCLA Bruins (27-4 / 3-0 Big Ten), who recorded a run-rule win over San Diego before clinching a three-game sweep against Purdue.
