The three-time defending softball national champions are once again hosting a regional in Norman. This year, Oregon, Boston University and Cleveland State will join the No. 2 Sooners in Oklahoma in the first round of the 2024 NCAA Tournament.

BU and Oregon open up the regional on Friday and Oklahoma takes on the Vikings immediately after. Though the Sooners are the obvious favorites to make it out of the regional into the supers, it's on them to make a statement in the first round.

The Sooners beat out the No. 1 seed Texas Longhorns in the Big 12 Championship game after losing their final regular-season series to Oklahoma State. Oregon finished third in the Pac-12 standings and Cleveland State earned an auto-bid after winning the Horizon League Tournament.

BU went a perfect 18-0 in Patriot League play and led the nation in ERA (1.28) during the regular season. Though the Ducks might seem to be Oklahoma's biggest threat, the Terriers could surprise this weekend in Norman. 

Here's the schedule for Oklahoma's 2024 softball regional, including how to watch each game.
