Continuing his yearly tradition of filling out an NCAA tournament bracket in his post-presidency years, former President Barack Obama is riding the UW women’s bandwagon this March.
Obama has the third-seeded Huskies making a return trip to the Final Four this season but, like last year, their run ending there — this year with a loss to UConn.
As a No. 7 seed last year, Mike Neighbors’ Huskies introduced themselves to the national stage with a magical run to the Final Four, upsetting Maryland, Kentucky and Stanford, the Nos. 2, 3 and 4 seeds, along the way before losing to Syracuse.
