With the new additions, I am VERY happy we got UofA and ASU for softball. With OU and UT leaving I was very concerned that our biggest competitions would be UCF and maybe Baylor.
Now we bring in ASU and Arizona.
Arizona: 8 time WCWS champion (last was 2007, runner up 2010), and 25 WCWS appearances
ASU: 2 time WCWS champion (2008 and 2011), 12 WCWS appearances
Both schools have been pretty good as of late as well minus ASU this last season. Outside of those 2, Utah actually had a good season this last year as well making it to the WCWS, and a total of 4 WCWS appearances (85, 91, 94, 23).
We wont be as stacked as the SEC, but at least this gives us strong competition and a good top 4 every year.
