D3 Spring Gamers in Regionals

This past March, the sun-soaked diamonds of Central Florida was host to more than just another Spring Break event — they set the stage for greatness. THE Spring Games, the world’s largest collegiate softball event, welcomed hundreds of programs from across the country, including more than 25 teams that have since earned their way into the 2025 NCAA Division III Softball Regionals.

These elite teams sharpened their skills in front of thousands of fans, surrounded by high-level competition, all while building chemistry and confidence that has carried into their postseason runs.

Programs That Took the Road to Regionals Through THE Spring Games

The following teams not only competed at THE Spring Games — they thrived. Their March momentum helped pave the way to national recognition:

• Northeast & Mid-Atlantic Powerhouses
  Ithaca, Springfield, Rowan, Swarthmore, Gettysburg, Ramapo, Cortland, Eastern, Lebanon Valley, Moravian, Alfred, Worcester State, Farmingdale State, Western New England, Pitt-Greensburg
  
  
  

• Midwest Dominance
  Trine, Wisconsin-Whitewater, Wisconsin-Oshkosh, Wisconsin-Eau Claire, UW-Stevens Point, Concordia Wisconsin, Lake Forest, Simpson, St. Mary’s MN, Westminster (PA), Mount Union, Bethany Lutheran.
  
  
  

• South & West Standouts
  Belhaven, Berry, Transylvania, Husson, Lewis & Clark
  
  
  

Each of these programs used their time at THE Spring Games to test lineups, face top-tier opponents, and compete in tournament-style intensity under ideal conditions. For many, that edge proved crucial in earning conference titles and at-large bids.

More Than a Event— A Launchpad for Success

While postseason spots are never guaranteed, THE Spring Games has become a common denominator among regional qualifiers. For teams like Trine and Berry — perennial contenders — it’s a chance to fine-tune championship-caliber squads. For programs like Swarthmore and Husson, it’s a proving ground that fuels breakout seasons.

And for all attendees, it’s an opportunity to bond off the field, play on professionally maintained facilities, and gain exposure in front of passionate fans

What This Means for Coaches, Fans, and Sponsors

For coaches, THE Spring Games offers the competitive edge needed to prepare teams for the postseason grind.
For families and fans, it’s a destination experience where they can watch elite-level softball and support their athletes in style.
For sponsors and partners, it’s a unique opportunity to align with a nationally impactful event that reaches over 400,000 accounts on social media and 40,000+ fans in person.

Looking Ahead

As teams now set their sights on Super Regionals and the Division III Women’s College World Series, many can trace their journey back to March in Clermont — where the seeds of postseason success were planted.

THE Spring Games isn’t just a Event.
It’s where champions begin their run.
