Rain postponements Friday caused alterations to the remainder of the schedule. Saturday's winner's bracket semifinal was instead made the championship match. The remainder of the consolation bracket was cancelled. The reason for cancelling the remaining matches was 1) Weber State softball doesn't have outdoor lighting, so games must be completed during daylight hours and 2) more rain was in the forecast Sunday which would have postponed the possible Sunday championship. If this had happened, the regular season champion would have gotten the NCAA auto-bid.
