SAN FRANCISCO - The bracket is set for the 2023 Pac-12 Softball Tournament , as the inaugural event is slated to begin this Wednesday, May 10 at Arizona's Hillenbrand Stadium.

Regular-season champion UCLA will be the top seed in Tucson. The Bruins won their 12th regular-season title by virtue of a 21-3 Conference record, the most victories in the league since Oregon in 2018 (21-3) and UCLA's best since it went 22-6 in 1999. The Bruins have won 23 in a row, the second-longest active streak in the nation.

Washington nabbed the No. 2 seed following its 8-0 win at Stanford on Sunday to wrap up its Pac-12 schedule with a 16-8 record. The Huskies closed the regular season by winning their last four Conference series.

Coming off a sweep at Oregon, the program's first series win over the Ducks, Utah grabbed the No. 3 seed, its best regular-season finish in its 12 seasons as a member of the Pac-12. The Utes went 15-9 in Conference, a program-record for Pac-12 wins, including sweeps of nationally-ranked Oregon and Stanford.

Stanford and Oregon both finished 14-10 and in a tie for fourth, with the Cardinal holding the tiebreaker and No. 4 seed. Stanford won two of three in Eugene to open its Pac-12 slate from March 17-19.

California, which went 9-14-1, winning more Pac-12 games than it has in any season since 2016, is the No. 6 seed.

Oregon State (6-17-1) won its first Conference series of the year to close out the regular season against Arizona State and secure the No. 7 seed.

Arizona and Arizona State tied for eighth with 6-18 league records and will meet in the event's first game on Wednesday at 6 p.m. PT. The Wildcats won the series in Tempe from March 10-12 to earn the No. 8 seed, while the Sun Devils are No. 9.

All eight contests will be nationally televised, with the Wednesday's first game and Thursday's quarterfinals set to air on Pac-12 Networks. The first of two Friday semifinals will be on ESPNU with the second carried on ESPN2. Saturday's championship will also be on ESPN2 at 7 p.m. PT.
