Texas and Texas Tech Set for WCWS Rematch at Devon Park

The best-of-three series will pit Texas’s largely in-state roster against Texas Tech’s transfer-led squad, signaling the transfer portal’s growing role in college softball.

Overview

  • The championship series is scheduled for Wednesday through Friday, June 3–5, at Devon Park in Oklahoma City with Game 1 starting at 8 p.m. ET each night if needed.
  • Tickets for all three potential games and multi-session passes are on sale now with starting prices published and refunds promised for a Game 3 that is not played.
  • Texas returns a roster built largely from in-state players with only four transfers among 23 players, underlining the program’s homegrown pipeline.
  • Texas Tech fields a roster heavy with transfer-portal additions, with 14 of 22 players arriving via transfers and NiJaree Canaday named as a key impact player.
  • Last year’s three-game final saw Texas beat Texas Tech for its first title, and this rematch will shape how coaches and fans view roster building through recruiting versus the transfer portal.
