University of Connecticut women’s basketball and the NCAA Div. 1 Final 4 have become synonymous with each other.
UConn has missed the Final 4 only twice since the 2007-08 season. There was no tournament in the 2019-20 season due to Covid restrictions, and the Huskies lost to Ohio State in the Round of 16 in 2022-23.
And don’t look now, but the Lady Huskies are back in the national semifinals once again this year.
The semifinals are on Friday, April 3 in Phoenix at the Mortgage Matchup Center. UConn will face South Carolina in a rematch from last season’s national title game at 7 p.m. Texas plays UCLA at 9:30 p.m. Both games will be broadcast on ESPN.
Winners from those two games will be back on the basketball court Easter Sunday, April 5 (ABC, 3:30 p.m. start) to crown a national champion.
How Final Fours has UConn women’s basketball team been to?
The Huskies are in the Final 4 for the 25th time in program history.
UConn has 12 NCAA titles to its credit, giving them the most national championships in women’s basketball history. The University of Tennessee is next as an eight-time champion, while South Carolina, Baylor, and Stanford are all tied with three trophies.
UCLA has won the title twice and the University of Texas is trying to capture its first national championship.
