Stanford earn No. 1 seed, to play Utah Valley to open 2021 Women’s NCAA Tournament

The Stanford Cardinal are officially a No. 1 seed for the 2021 NCAA Women’s Championship, and they’ll take on Utah Valley to open up their quest for March Madness glory.

Stanford are the top seed in the Alamo region, as the entire women’s basketball tournament will take place in San Antonio, Texas this year. After a year with no NCAA Tournament, all teams, including the Cardinal, will be thrilled to be back in the big dance.

Utah Valley University went 13-6 this season, and are in the NCAA tournament for the first time after getting the WAC’s automatic berth.
