It's about time for West Virginia women’s basketball to head back to the big dance -- and tonight, they'll find out exactly where and when they’ll be dancing.
In his first-season with WVU basketball, head coach Mark Kellogg has exceeded expectations, guiding his team to a 24-7 overall record on the season. Despite falling to Kansas State in the quarterfinal round of the Big 12 Women’s Basketball Tournament, the Mountaineers are still in a prime spot to receive an at-large bid to the 2024 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament.
The NCAA Tournament Selection Show for the women’s will be broadcast live at 8 pm on Sunday, March 17 on ESPN. The team will be hosting a selection show watch party inside the Clark Mountaineer Club at the WVU Coliseum, with the event open to the public. Doors will open at 7:45 pm.

WVU’s will look to spoil the fun of some of the higher-seeded opposition in the field with their elite-level defense -- the team will enter the tournament ranked third-overall nationally in turnovers forced per game (24.0), second-overall nationally in steals per game (13.9), and first-overall nationally in turnover margin (8.9).
