The Southeastern Conference and the University of Missouri women’s softball team announced its 2025 conference schedule on Wednesday.

The Tigers will play 24 SEC league games, as part of eight three-game series in March, April, and the beginning of May. Conference play will begin on March 7 and run through May 3, with the SEC Championship Tournament scheduled to be played in Athens, Ga., May 6-10.

Led by seventh-year head coach Larissa Anderson, Missouri will open SEC play on the road, facing Kentucky in Lexington, March 7-9.

The Tigers’ first home SEC series will take place March 21-23 at the Mizzou Softball Stadium against four-time reigning national champion, Oklahoma.

Mizzou’s home SEC slate also features matchups against Texas (April 4-6), Texas A&M (April 18-20), and Georgia (May 1-3).

Mizzou is coming off another impressive season in 2024. The Tigers finished fifth in the league regular season standings, then advanced to the SEC Tournament championship game against Florida.

Missouri earned a spot in the NCAA Tournament for the 17th consecutive year, where it hosted and won the Columbia Regional. The Tigers also hosted the Super-Regional, where it lost in the final game to Duke in an extra-inning thriller at the Mizzou Softball Stadium.

Overall, Mizzou won 48 games in 2024, the program’s highest total in the SEC era and fourth-most in program history.

Anderson most recently led the Tigers to a top-10 finish, an NCAA Super Regional appearance and the team’s second Southeastern Conference Tournament Championship appearance in three seasons.

The Tigers return six starters from the 2024 NCAA Super Regional team including SEC All-Defensive right fielder Kayley Lenger, NFCA All-Region first baseman Abby Hay, along with catcher Julia Crenshaw and third baseman Kara Daly.
