It took about 15 minutes after the ESPN broadcast of the NCAA selection show ended, but we have official confirmation now: YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles will be a part of the 64 team field for the 2022 WNIT!
Four teams from the Big East qualified for the NCAA tournament: UConn as the automatic bid, along with Creighton, Villanova, and DePaul. Those were also the top four teams in the Big East standings this season, and so the Golden Eagles are the automatic bid to the WNIT as the best team still remaining.
