What’s an NCAA softball tournament without a weather delay?
Just four pitches into the second game of the 2025 Super Regionals, there is a weather delay in the matchup between No. 6 Texas and No. 11 Clemson at Red & Charline McCombs Field in Austin, Texas.
Clemson’s Alex Brown led off the game with a single and Maddie Moore fell behind 0-2 before lightning struck within eight miles of the stadium, causing the umpires to have to call a lightning delay. The game cannot start until at least 30 minutes following the last lightning strike.
