At the absolute earliest, you’re reading this as the final regular season game of the Big East women’s basketball calendar tips off. Why are Xavier and Seton Hall playing a game in Cincinnati two days after the rest of the league ended their season? Who knows, although “a COVID reschedule” is our most likely explanation.
In any case, the league is ending the regular season today and the Big East tournament starts on Friday. That means we’ve got a limited window between now and when the league office announces awards at the end of the season, and I learned a long time ago to over-anticipate when they’ll pull the trigger on these announcements.
