The NCAA Women’s Tournament is officially underway. While chalk ruled in the first round, the second round is typically where teams start to separate from the pack. That gets started on Sunday afternoon with eight games on deck.
No. 1 seed South Carolina looks to make another trip to the Sweet 16 when it takes on its border rival in No. 8 seed North Carolina. No. 1 seed Texas is also in action when the Longhorns take on No. 8 seed Alabama. Plus, No. 3 seed LSU looks to shake off its slow start to the tourney when it takes on No. 11 seed Middle Tennessee, one of the only teams to score an upset in the first round. The night cap could produce an interesting battle when No. 2 seed Stanford takes on No. 7 seed Iowa State.
Don’t forget, there’s still time to fill out your bracket and prepare for the action.
