Women's NCAA Tournament 2016: Maryland vs. Iona preview, as Terps host first-round matchup

The Maryland women’s basketball team begins its bid for a third consecutive Final Four appearance Saturday afternoon against the Iona Gaels. The Terps received a No. 2 seed in the Lexington region on Selection Monday (which I attended).

The first-round contest will tip off at 1:30 p.m. EDT at Xfinity Center. The winner will play either No. 7 Washington or No. 10 Pennsylvania; those two will square off 30 minutes after the conclusion of this game. ESPN will have whip-around coverage of this and several other games, but is actually calling the College Park contests remotely.
