After winning its first SEC championship and fifth overall conference title, Texas softball will enter the NCAA Tournament as the No. 6 team in the National Fastpitch Coaches Association poll.
Texas (42-10) beat No. 3 Alabama Saturday for the SEC title, which helped the Longhorns claim the No. 2 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament that begins this weekend. The Tide secured the top overall NCAA seed despite the loss.
Texas picked up 603 votes in Tuesday’s poll, which makes the Longhorns one of six SEC squads ranked in the top 10. Overall, 10 SEC teams earned a spot in the poll. Texas A&M fell two spots to No. 17 after getting upset by Auburn in the second round of the SEC Tournament.
Nebraska took over the No. 1 spot after winning the Big Ten tournament title. Oklahoma, which got upset by Georgia in the SEC quarterfinals, fell to No. 2.
