HAMDEN, Conn. – The Quinnipiac Women's Basketball team received an at-large bid to the Women's Basketball Invitation Tournament, WBIT, and will play the Seton Hall Pirates on Thursday, March 20th in the Walsh Gymnasium at 7 PM.
The WBIT committee seeded only the top half of the 32-team field. The remaining 16 teams were placed into the bracket by the WBIT Committee as close to their areas of natural interest as possible.
"The WBIT selection committee is excited to announce this year's tournament following the success of last year's inaugural tournament," said Barbara Burke, Former Deputy Director of Athletics, University of Iowa, and chair of the WBIT committee. "The selection committee did an excellent job of identifying and selecting an incredible competitive 32 team field. With 100 NCAA teams experiencing postseason competition in the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Championship and Women's Basketball Invitation Tournament, speaks to the growth and excitement for women's basketball. The WBIT selection committee congratulates all 32 teams, and we look forward to a great WBIT tournament."
Preliminary round WBIT games will be televised on ESPN+, while the semifinals will be on ESPNU, and the finals will be on ESPN2. Additional WBIT information can be found on ncaa.com/WBIT.
This will be Quinnipiac's first postseason tournament since they competed in the WNIT during the 2021-22 season.
