How to watch South Carolina softball's Super Regional vs. UCLA
Because South Carolina earned a top-8 national seed, Columbia will host the Supers, as well. Coming to town are the 9-seed UCLA Bruins, who also made quick work of their Regional.
The winner of the Columbia Super Regional will head to the Women’s College World Series. South Carolina has not made it to Oklahoma City since 1997, in a time before the current Regional-Super Regional-College World Series format. In contrast to the Gamecocks, UCLA made the WCWS last season and eight times in the last nine full seasons, including finishing the 2019 campaign as the National Champions.

First pitch for game one on Friday afternoon is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. ESPN2 will broadcast the contest, while the ESPN app makes it available via streaming.
