Tournament notes
- Washington's Danielle Lawrie and Tennessee's Monica Abbott each pitched no-hitters on the first day of the tournament, although Lawrie allowed a run. This is the first time a no-hitter has been accomplished since the 2003 Women's College World Series and only the third time in the NCAA era of the WCWS that two pitchers had no-hitters on the same day.
- This was the first time that UCLA did not advance to the WCWS in its NCAA era.
- Only one game in the entire tournament ended with the losing team scoring more than one run, an NCAA record for offensive futility.

WCWS records tied or broken
- The 2007 tournament was ruled by pitchers, as 11 shutouts were thrown over the week, an NCAA record. Tennessee alone didn't allow a run in the entire tournament until the 10th inning of the second game of the finals.
- After fanning 11 Lady Vols in the final game, Arizona's Taryne Mowatt passed Tennessee's Monica Abbott for the WCWS single-season NCAA strikeout record. Mowatt struck out 76 batters in 2007, while Abbott finished with 75 strikeouts. (Both passed the previous record held by the previous Arizona pitcher, Alicia Hollowell, who held the record with 65).
- Mowatt's 60 innings pitched in the 2007 College World Series broke the previous NCAA record of 53 held by Michigan's Jennie Ritter (2005). Mowatt delivered every Arizona pitch in this year's event.
- Arizona's Kristie Fox recorded her 11th hit of the 2007 WCWS, tying the NCAA record of UCLA's Natasha Watley set in 2003.
- The Lady Vols’ Kenora Posey tied the WCWS single-season NCAA steals record with four. She shares the top spot with Lowe, who had four steals in 2006, and two others.
- The 2007 event marked the best-attended Women's College World Series in history. A total of 62,463 fans passed through the gates of ASA Hall of Fame Stadium, including 5,533 for the third game. The 2007 attendance total broke the previous WCWS record (set in 2006) by 16,341.
