2003 Women's College World Series

The 2003 Women's College World Series was held from May 22 until May 26, 2003, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This was Oklahoma City's 13th time to host the WCWS since first hosting the tournament in 1990.

Having advanced through a 32-team bracket, eight NCAA Division I college softball teams met at ASA Hall of Fame Stadium to decide the 2003 Softball National Championship:

Unfortunately for California, this trip would end with UCLA claiming their 8th National Title (Not counting their vacated 1995 National Title or any titles won prior to 1982).

UCLA pitcher Keira Goerl was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player.
