The 1983 National Collegiate women's slow-pitch softball championship was held in Graham, North Carolina, near Raleigh, on May 5–7.
[1] The double-elimination tournament included 13 teams, with the top five seeded in the order shown: Fourth-seeded South Florida fought through the losers' bracket after losing its third game.
The final if-necessary game went an extra inning to end in a 4-3 South Florida win, giving the team a 7-1 record in the tournament.
This was to be the last slow-pitch game ever played by the Florida State Lady Seminoles, who switched to fast-pitch the following year.
