NCAA Plans To Host Women's Hoop Tourney In One Location

The NCAA plans to "stage the entire women's basketball tournament in one geographic area, and San Antonio is the likely host site." The move was "made to help mitigate the risks of COVID-19 and matches that of the men's tournament, which the NCAA said last month will be played in a single area -- most likely Indianapolis." The women's Final Four in '21 was already set for San Antonio, and the NCAA has "begun preliminary talks with the Texas city to hold the entire 64-team tournament in the area." The NCAA "expects the tournament to be played in late March and early April as usual, though there is a chance the time frame could be shorter" (AP, 12/14).
