The Tulsa women's basketball team learned it will host UConn this season, as the American Athletic Conference has announced the women's basketball scheduling model for the 2018-19 season.
The league's 12 members will play a 16-game schedule. Each team will play five of its 11 opponents twice, and six opponents once each – three at home and three away.
Tulsa will take on Cincinnati, ECU, Memphis, Temple and Wichita State in both home and away contests, while also hosting UConn, SMU and Tulane. The Golden Hurricane will face Houston, UCF and USF in road contests only.
Five American teams – UCF, Cincinnati, UConn, Houston, and USF - reached the postseason in 2017-18, highlighted by UConn reaching its 11th-consecutive Final Four.
