Spartans set to Host Regionals

WEEK 14 

The University of Tampa Softball Team has entered as the No. 1 overall seed in the 2023 NCAA DII Softball Tournament. They are the No. 1 seed in the south region as they host their fourth-ever regionals in program history. 

Thursday, May 11 

Game 1: 12:00 P.M. – Tuskegee vs. Tampa 

Game 2: 3:00 P.M. – Mississippi College vs. Alabama-Huntsville 

SSC Teams with National Seeds: #1 Tampa, #2 Saint Leo 

Tampa 

  • The Spartans will enter the NCAA tournament with the highest expectations in program history, entering regionals with a 40-3 record. Tampa has been almost perfect at Naimoli Family Softball Field, with a 22-1 record on their home diamond. They look to sweep through the first round of regionals starting Thursday as they take on Tuskegee.  

Tuskegee 

  • Despite the Golden Tigers falling in the SIAC Championship game to Edward Waters, Tuskegee has a 25-19 record and are winners of 15 of their last 21 games. They will travel to Tampa to make a name for themselves as they play their first NCAA tournament game against No. 1 Tampa. 

Mississippi College 

  • The Choctaws have finished the regular season with an impressive 42-10 record and made it to the GSC championship game before falling to Alabama-Huntsville. Mississippi Colleges' first matchup of the 2023 playoff campaign will be a rematch of the GSC Championship game with the Chargers. 

Alabama-Huntsville  

  • After losing two out of three to Auburn-Montgomery to end the regular season, the Chargers ran through the GSC Tournament to win their conference championship for the first time since 2008. Alabama-Huntsville will look to do the same thing as last week at Mississippi College.
