2024 NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament selections revealed

The 2024 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament could be more dramatic than the men’s side this year with a plethora of storylines as the teams will fight their way to the Final Four in Cleveland.

South Carolina comes into the tournament as the No. 1 overall seed. The Gamecocks ran the table and finished the regular season and conference tournament with a 32-0 record and an SEC Championship. The team will miss Kamilla Cardoso for the first game due to her participation in a fight during the final against LSU.

Speaking of LSU, the Tigers didn’t do the dominating that everyone expected them to do with the additions of Hailey Van Lith and Aneesah Morrow to their defending national championship roster. However, LSU still put up a 28-5 record, and with Angel Reese down low, the Tigers still have a very good chance to go far.
