The Buffalo women’s basketball team will make its first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance in a place familiar for UB basketball programs going to their first dance: Columbus, Ohio.
The Bulls (20-13, 8-10 Mid-American Conference) were awarded a No. 14 seed in the Sioux Falls Region and will face No. 3 seed Ohio State (24-7, 15-3 Big Ten) for the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Friday in Columbus, Ohio. The men’s team made its first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance in Columbus last season.
The game will take place at Ohio State’s St. John Arena, as the higher seed hosts NCAA Women’s Tournament first round games.
