The women's basketball team will face top-seeded and No. 1 nationally ranked UConn in the NCAA Tournament, the NCAA announced this evening. The game will be played in Bridgeport, Conn., this Sunday at 7 p.m. Cornell received a No. 16 seed in the tournament, having won the Ivy League's automatic NCAA bid with a win over Dartmouth this past Sunday. That game was the final contest in a playoff for the Ancient Eight's NCAA bid after Cornell, Dartmouth and Harvard all tied for the Ivy League championship, winning 11 league games apiece.
