NCAA hosting possibility

While DePaul women’s basketball is coasting through the Big East schedule (they moved to 14-1 in the Big East and 22-5 overall this weekend), there is something bigger on the line than a fourth-straight Big East regular season title.

This year, the NCAA selection committee has started to release their top 16 seeds for the NCAA tournament every week. For women’s basketball, every seed who is a four seed or higher will host the first two rounds (the round of 64 and 32).

Last Monday, DePaul was named as the 16th overall seed by the NCAA selection committee, which means they would be a four seed that would host the first two rounds at McGrath-Phillips Arena.
