After months of fierce competition and intense anticipation, the Iowa women’s basketball team is finally ready to make another run in the NCAA Tournament. Fresh off their third consecutive Big Ten Tournament championship, Iowa was bestowed a #1 seed and placed in the Albany 2 region. While Iowa will have the luxury of playing its first two games at home, the Hawkeyes will need to win two neutral site games in Albany’s MVP Arena to make a repeat trip to the Final Four.
Being a #1 seed is an extremely coveted honor, and for good reason.
