Since winter in Utah is no joke, the BYU softball team will play nearly half of its 51-game schedule on the road before ever clocking in at Gail Miller Field for a home game in Provo, Utah. 

The Cougars will travel around the western United States and make a trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, during the first month of the 2025 collegiate softball season, including a stop in Cathedral City, California, for the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic.

It will be the first appearance for BYU at the prestigious Mary Nutter, which will run from Feb. 20-23.

The Cougars are coming off a 31-23 (11-16 in conference play) season that ended at the hands of eventual national champion Oklahoma in the semifinals of the 2024 Phillips 66 Big 12 Softball Championship. It was BYU’s first season in the Big 12.

The team’s first Big 12 win came against Texas Tech on March 9, while the Cougars’ first Big 12 series win came later in the month against Houston. BYU previously played in the West Coast Conference. 

BYU’s 2025 campaign kicks off with the La Jolla Invitational in La Jolla, California (Feb. 6-8), followed by the Puerto Vallarta College Challenge (Feb. 12-15). 

Then, it’s time for BYU’s debut at the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic.

The 2025 Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic will feature 31 teams, headlined by Tennessee, Nebraska and Utah. BYU is scheduled to play Washington, Cal State Northridge, Hawai’i, UC Santa Barbara and Duke. 

The Mary Nutter will take place from Feb. 20-23 at the unique Big League Dreams Complex, which has five fields available for the event.
