Seeds

The tournament featured nine teams in this conference (Colorado, USC & Washington State do not field teams). Teams will play once per day at the 2024 Pac-12 Softball Championship. The four-day event began with a play-in game between the eighth and ninth-place teams in the regular-season standings. That winner advanced to an eight-team, single-elimination bracket with the quarterfinals, semifinals and championship being contested on the following three days. The winner of the Pac-12 Softball Championship received the conference's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. The seedings were determined upon completion of regular season play. The winning percentage of the teams in conference play determined tournament seedings. There were tiebreakers in place to seed teams with identical conference records. [2]
