Two teams have already advanced to the Final Four of the 2025 Women’s NCAA Tournament; two more will advance tonight after a night of games that includes two No. 1 vs. No. 2 battles.

Yesterday, the defending champion South Carolina Gamecocks advanced, beating Duke to secure a fourth consecutive Final Four berth. UCLA also advanced with a 72-65 victory over LSU.

Today’s action kicks off with an all-Texas matchup when the No. 1 Texas Longhorns faces Hailey Van Lith and TCU in the Horned Frogs’ first-ever appearance in the Elite Eight. Following that game, USC (minus star Juju Watkins, who tore her ACL during the second round) will take on UConn and Paige Bueckers.
