Marquette set to face Virginia Tech in NCAA Tournament

The Marquette women’s basketball team is set to take on the Virginia Tech Hokies in the first round of the 2021 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament in San Antonio, Texas March 21.

Marquette (19-6, 14-4 BIG EAST) earned a No. 10 seed in the River Walk Region after finishing second in the BIG EAST regular season while reaching its fifth-straight BIG EAST title game.

This marks the Golden Eagles’ fourth–straight NCAA Tournament appearance dating back to the 2016-17 season and the first appearance under head coach Megan Duffy.

“Just completely thrilled to see our name come across the bracket and be able to see the benefits of this incredible season in so many ways,” Duffy said.
