The postseason is here for the 2025 NCAA softball tournament.

Indiana will be a part of the action for the third straight season. The Hoosiers got an at-large bid and will play Oklahoma State at 4 p.m. ET at the Fayetteville Regional hosted by Arkansas. The game will be broadcast on ESPN2.

Indiana is 33-18 and the Hoosiers were 10-12 in the Big Ten, finishing in a tie for 10th place. However, Indiana had a RPI at No. 42 and made the field.

Indiana is a No. 3-seed in the Fayetteville Regional. Host Arkansas is the fourth seed in the tournament overall.

The Hoosiers are the toughest out in Division I at the plate. Indiana leads the nation in batting average (.368), on-base percentage (.457) and doubles per game (2.1).

Indiana boasts an attack led by Taylor Minnick – a top 25 finalist for the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year.

Minnick, a left fielder, is batting .470 with 16 home runs and 63 RBI. In Big Ten games, Minnick batted a league-leading .476. She is also slugging .973. Here's an Indiana softball tournament preview.

Regionals for the 64-team tournament take place from Friday to Sunday, weather permitting at the host sites with a double elimination format. The 16 regional winners advance to best-of-3 super regionals which take place from May 22-25.

Eight teams will then advance to the 2025 College World Series at Devon Park in Oklahoma City beginning on May 29. The WCWS is a double-elimination tournament, and the final two teams will play a best-of-three series for the national championship.

The bracket is set!
