Every game from the 2019 Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City will be televised by ESPN, the company’s 19th consecutive year airing every pitch of the culmination of the NCAA Division I Softball Championship.
The action begins Thursday, May 30, from USA Softball Hall of Fame Stadium – OGE Energy Field in Oklahoma City with a four-day, eight-team, double-elimination round robin, advancing two teams to the WCWS Finals.
The best-of-three championship series begins Monday, June 3, and concludes with the crowning of the national champion on Tuesday, June 4, or Wednesday, June 5. Games will be available on ESPN or ESPN2, along with every game available on the ESPN App.
