Who will be the new Crystl Bustos, Jessica Mendoza or Caitlin Lowe? Who will be the new Cat Osterman, Monica Abbott or Jennie Finch?

Bracket [here](http://proxy.espn.go.com/ncaa/bracket?id=4156071); Thursday schedule [here;](http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/news/story?id=4156925)team by team breakdown [here](http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/columns/story?id=4208254). Some videos collected [here](http://search.espn.go.com/results?searchString=ncaa%20softball&start=0&dims=6%2020).

I’m looking forward to seeing Alabama ace Kelsi Dunne, who threw [back-to-back no hitters](http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=4204269) in the regional, and Arizona slugger Stacie Chambers (31 homers for the year).

Who ya got? Who ya rooting for?

Georgia fan here, but I’m rather new to WCWS. The baseball team almost won it all last year, and it’s good to see the women up there this year.

I also found it interesting that both the SEC & Pac-10 have 3 teams in.
