This season of Huge Ten ladies’s basketball has featured must-watch video games and a deep pool of expertise. The convention is now getting collectively for the Huge Ten Event this week at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Motion tipped off Wednesday afternoon, and Sunday’s championship sport airs on CBS.
UCLA was the outright champion of the convention common season title after finishing the primary excellent Huge Ten season in additional than a decade. The Bruins are the No. 1 seed for the convention event and have probably already locked in a No. 1 seed within the NCAA Event.
Iowa is the No. 2 seed for the Huge Ten Event as Jan Jensen continues to achieve the post-Lisa Bluder and post-Caitlin Clark period. Earlier this season, the Hawkeyes obtained three consecutive wins in opposition to top-15 opponents for the primary time in program historical past.
USC has struggled with out star JuJu Watkins, as mirrored by the Trojans’ 17-12 general file. Nevertheless, they’ve had just a few vibrant spots, together with a win over Iowa on Jan. 29. Jazzy Davidson is a prime Huge Ten Freshman of the 12 months candidate as she has led the Trojans in each main class.
The largest shock this season has been Minnesota, a workforce that has not been to the NCAA Event since 2018. The Gophers will not be simply set to return to the Huge Dance, they’re projected to host for the primary time ever as a top-four seed. They earned the No. 4 seed within the Huge Ten, which implies a double-bye this week.
