SHAWNEE – Oklahoma Baptist earned its second straight trip to the NCAA Division II Softball Tournament on Monday, joining a 64-team field in pursuit of a National Championship.
The Bison were selected as the fifth seed in the Central Region and will head to host school Pittsburg State on May 9 to take on the No. 4 seed in Augustana (SD). Thursday's game is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. at the Pittsburg State Softball Complex.
OBU was one of three clubs from the Great American Conference who punched their ticket as Southern Nazarene and Southern Arkansas garnered the No. 7 and No. 8 seeds, respectively.
Oklahoma Baptist owns a 40-12 record and claimed its second consecutive GAC regular season title this year with a 30-3 conference mark.
Thursday will be the second meeting with Augustana this season. The Vikings topped OBU 4-0 in the 2024 season opener at the Mardi Gras Invitational.
