So tonight was the night - Selection Monday. Now some of you might not know what this means, so I'll explain. It is when the teams who are selected to play in the NCAA Women's tournament are picked. Ok, well that's not technically true. They were picked before hand by some important people and they were released tonight - the names of the team, their seed, who they will be playing and where they will be playing. For those of you who follow basketball - the bracket is announced on Selection Monday (then again, if you follow, I'm guessing you knew that! Ha!)
Well, it's official, the HOOS are in!!! Although there wasn't really any doubt that they were in because after all, they are 22/24 in the national rankings, the real question was what seed would they be (turns out a 5th seed), where would they be bracketed and who against.
Those awesome HOOS are headed to Los Angeles this weekend. Of course when Matt texted me La, I definitely thought Louisiana. Ha! I'm guessing Los Angeles is why better than traveling to Louisiana. According to Matt he'll be working on his tan - and apparently that was code for a lot of filming as we are sure those HOOS will be advancing! Which leads me to let you know who and when they play.
The HOOS will face No. 12 seed Marist in Los Angeles in the first round on Saturday, March 21, at approximately 7:30 p.m. Pacific Time. The game will be televised on ESPN2. So hopefully some of you will get a chance to watch - I'm hoping I will!
So, with that...CONGRATS HOOS! You deserved it - now go out there and kick some Marist butt on Saturday!
