The Quinnipiac women’s basketball team has secured an at-large bid to the Women’s Basketball Invitation Tournament (WBIT) and will face Seton Hall in the opening round. The game is set for Thursday, March 20, at 7 p.m. in Walsh Gymnasium.
The WBIT committee seeded only the top half of the 32-team field, while the remaining 16 teams were placed in the bracket based on regional considerations.
Barbara Burke, chair of the WBIT committee and former Deputy Director of Athletics at the University of Iowa, expressed enthusiasm about this year’s tournament.
“The WBIT selection committee is excited to announce this year’s tournament following the success of last year’s inaugural event,” Burke said. “With 100 NCAA teams competing in the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Championship and WBIT, it reflects the incredible growth and excitement for women’s basketball. We congratulate all 32 teams and look forward to a great tournament.”
The WBIT’s early-round games will be broadcast on ESPN+, while the semifinals will air on ESPNU, and the championship game will be shown on ESPN2. More details about the tournament can be found at ncaa/WBIT.
This marks Quinnipiac’s first postseason appearance since the 2021-22 season, when the Bobcats competed in the WNIT.
