With the Texas Longhorns concluding the 2025 college softball season as national champions, Softball America revealed its final Top 25 poll of the year. 

Texas, which was the No. 1 in Softball America’s poll eight of 14 times this season, returns to that top spot after grabbing the Women’s College World Series win. They made an incredible boost to the top after placing sixth in Softball America’s last poll before the conference tournaments began. 

All eight teams that made WCWS appearances, along with Clemson and Florida State make up the Top 10, while three unranked teams going into conference play make appearances in the Top 25. Liberty and Georgia return to the poll after their Super Regional runs, while North Florida makes its first-ever appearance in the Softball America poll after storming all the way to the Columbia Regional Final. 

Here is what the Top 25 looks like: 

  1. Texas 56-12 (6) 
  2. Texas Tech 54-14 (9)
  3. Oklahoma 52-9 (4)
