The Notre Dame Fighting Irish women’s basketball team will be a No. 1 seed in the Lexington region, facing the Northeast Conference champions Robert Morris in the first round Friday.
If the Irish (30-3) beat the 16-seed Colonials (22-10), they’ll play the winner of No. 8 Green Bay (27-5) and No. 9 Purdue (22-12) on Sunday. Those first and second round games will be held at the Purcell Pavilion.
If the Irish advance to the Sweet 16, they’ll then travel to Lexington, Ky. with a potential matchup with 4-seed Kentucky Wildcats or the 5-seed Ohio State Buckeyes.
