Oregon Tech softball coach Greg Stewart announced seven incoming freshmen have signed Cascade Conference Letters of Intent for the 2027 season. The class joins a Lady Owls program coming off a 43-10 season, a fifth straight CCC regular-season title and a 12th straight trip to the NAIA Championships.

Southern Oregon softball is headed back to the NAIA World Series after winning the Ashland Bracket championship, while Oregon Tech will play a winner-take-all game Thursday after falling to Our Lady of the Lake in Klamath Falls. The Raiders will return to Georgia to defend their national title, and the Owls still have a chance to join them.
