Share this...

Division I women’s basketball will switch to using the newly revised NCAA Evaluation Tool (NET) to help determine which teams make the big dance, according to the NCAA officials. The updated NET formula will apply to both Division I men’s and women’s basketball, according to the NCAA.

The NET is a metric used to estimate the strength of each team and is part of the process used to determine at-large bids for the NCAA Tournament.

The decision to bring NET to Division I women’s basketball was announced May 4 and will go into effect for the 2020-21 season.
