Women’s Final Four is set for action today at 7:00 pm as No.1 South Carolina faces No.3 North Carolina St. followed by No.1 seed Iowa vs No.3 Seed UCONN.
The words of Iowa star Caitlin Clark perfectly sum up the women’s tournament this year as just two games stand between the Hawkeyes and the program’s first national championship. But nothing about March Madness is ever certain.
The women’s Final Four begins Friday night in Cleveland with Dawn Staley and the undefeated South Carolina Gamecocks taking on North Carolina State, making its first appearance in the Final Four since 1998.
The Huskies are eight years removed from their last title and are looking to change that as they get ready for the program’s 23rd national semifinal, the most of any school.
The Wolfpack have been responsible for not one, but two major upsets this year knocking out top-seeded Texas and No. 2 seed Stanford. NC State wasn’t even ranked to start the season, but guard Aziaha “Zaza” James has shined for the Wolfpack, scoring 29 and 27 points respectively in their last two games.
