There wasn’t so much drama involved with the women’s selection show, thankfully, because we knew NC State was in, just not sure where. The Wolfpack is the No. 7 seed in the “Greenville 2***” region, and will play No. 10 Princeton to open the tournament.
(***Two regions are in Seattle, and two are in Greenville.)
This means that NC State will be traveling to Salt Lake City, where it will have to get through No. 2 Utah in order to advance to the Sweet Sixteen. The Wolfpack has been used to hosting these opening weekends over the last handful of years, so this will be a different challenge.
