FORT COLLINS — For the third time in four years, the Colorado State women's basketball team will host a first-round game in the WNIT.
The Rams automatically qualified for the tournament after winning their fourth straight regular season Mountain West title. They came up short of earning a second straight trip to the NCAA Tournament last week in Las Vegas, falling to Boise State in the MW tournament semifinals.
CSU (24-8) will host Saint Mary's (20-12) on Thursday at Moby Arena, the tournament announced Monday. Tip time for the game will be announced at noon on Tuesday.
