March Madness is finally here.
After waiting almost a year, it’s conference tournament season and the NCAA women’s basketball tournament is upon us. 32 teams will receive automatic bids to win their respective Conference tournaments, while the other 36 entrants will have to wait for Selection Sunday to find out their post-season fate.
On the women’s side, conference tournaments in the Sun Belt and Horizon League began on February 28. The Big 12, Colonial and Missouri Valley conferences will conclude the two-week sprint on March 12 before the women’s selection show also takes place that day
