Utes claim No. 7 in final D1Softball rankings, at No. 8 in three other polls
SALT LAKE CITY – The University of Utah softball team has obtained its highest ranking in program history in the final D1Softball Top 25 of 2023, claiming the No. 7 spot in the rankings released on Tuesday. The Utes also finished the year ranked No. 8 in the USA Today/NFCA poll, as well as the Softball America and ESPN.com/USA Softball rankings.
These rankings top Utah's previous program-best, which came in 2014, when they finished the season ranked 14th.
The Utes achieved this recognition after a 2023 campaign that included the program's first trip to the Women's College World Series since 1994 and saw them earn the title of Pac-12 Tournament Champions. Utah's 42 victories matched the fourth-highest total in school history and their .724 win percentage goes down as the Utes' third-best.
The squad's list of accomplishments also includes winning a super regional series for the first time ever, setting new program high with eight all-conference and all-region picks, piling up a Utah-best 15 wins in Pac-12 play and sweeping a series from a team ranked inside the top five for the first time ever.
