College softball: Week 11 Top 25 and how to watch

The home run-hitting Oklahoma Sooners remain in the top spot, with Alabama, Nebraska, and Texas all receiving first-place votes. Virginia Tech dropped six spots, falling out of the top ten while two other ACC teams, Louisville and Clemson, entered the poll after spending last week unranked.

The Bruins are hot, having won their last 12 games. Woolery has driven much of that surge. Over UCLA's last five games, the infielder went 11-for-15 with seven home runs. She now has 30 home runs on the season.

This eighth-inning home run from Leighann Goode helped Texas earn a series win against Georgia and end a brutal stretch of 12 consecutive games against ranked opponents on a high note.

Florida's two top teams are meeting for the first time this season, both with single-digit losses on the year. Florida looks strong, and has won eight of its last nine. Florida State, meanwhile, is coming off a series sweep of North Carolina, which was surely helpful after being swept in California by Stanford.
