College softball rankings: 2025 NCAA Week 13 Top 25 poll
It’s officially a wrap on the 2025 college softball regular season, and now we are on to the postseason.
The final week of play brought upsets (sorry, Oklahoma and UCLA) and standout performances (shoutout to Texas’ Mia Scott). There’s a new No. 1 team yet again with Texas A&M moving up after winning its weekend series over Tennessee.
The Sooners and Bruins slid down the poll a bit after their losses. And Georgia dropped out, while the Virginia made its way back in.
To get you ready for the conference championships (which start today), check out our latest ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate top 25 ranking.
Play of the week
Nothing gets past Florida’s Kendra Falby. Check out her impressive catch to keep the Sooners off the board at the top of the second inning in the series finale.

Player to watch
Mia Scott, Texas
Notice how there’s no position listed for Scott above, there’s a reason for that. In Texas’ series finale against Kentucky this weekend Scott became the first Longhorn in program history to play all nine positions in a game. What can’t she do? During the senior’s final series, she batted .439 and added three RBIs, five assists and a had a 1.000 fielding percentage.
