The 2025 Alabama softball season is just days away as Team 29 will open the season at the Candrea Classic in Arizona on Feb. 7. The Crimson Tide is coming off a regular season that it managed to turn around in the postseason to a Women’s College World Series Run.
Alabama returns a lot of players from the WCWS team like Kristen White, Marlie Giles , but there are also a lot of question marks around the Crimson Tide. All the preseason softball polls have been released, and Alabama came in at No. 11 in the NFCA Coaches poll, Softball America rankings and USA Softball poll. D1 Softball ranked the Tide No. 17.
