UConn women’s basketball came in as the 1-seed in the Seattle Regional 4 during the NCAA Selection Committee’s initial bracket reveal on Thursday. LSU (2-seed), Michigan (3) and Virginia Tech (4) were the other teams in the Huskies’ region. If all seeds hold, UConn would face South Carolina in the Final Four while Indiana and Stanford were the top seeds in the opposite two regions.
The Huskies (21-4) were expected to be a 1-seed, though their loss to Marquette likely dropped them to the fourth overall seed. They’re first in strength of schedule, second in the NCAA’s NET rankings and the third-best team according to Her Hoop Stats.
