The Green Bay Phoenix women's basketball will head east to open NCAA Tournament play this weekend after drawing SEC opponent Alabama for the first round.
Saturday's game will take place in College Park, Md., at 12:30 p.m. in front of a nationally televised audience. The winner will play either host (4) Maryland or (13) Norfolk State in the second round. The Phoenix have won 22 games in a row, including three wins in the Horizon League Tournament that helped them earn their second straight NCAA Tournament berth. The Crimson Tide finished in sixth place in a tough SEC and entered their conference tournament as the 21st-ranked team in the country.
