US EditionNCAA women's committee’s 1st top 16 reveal: UConn, UCLA, South Carolina, Vanderbilt are No. 1s
- On Saturday, the NCAA women's basketball selection committee revealed its first in-season top-16 list projecting UConn, UCLA, South Carolina, and Vanderbilt as No. 1 seeds in Fort Worth and Sacramento regionals, with UConn as overall No. 1.
- Because Saturday's list omitted later games, the NCAA women's basketball selection committee's in-season reveal uses 12 criteria to project top seeds and regional placements, excluding scheduled games that day.
- Host venues appear in Fort Worth, Texas, and Sacramento, California, with regional arenas roughly 10 minutes from campus, and UConn's bracket includes LSU, Ohio State, and Oklahoma.
- A projected 1 seed gains potential Friday-Sunday games on the second weekend, top 16 seeds host early rounds, the SEC and Big Ten each hold six seeds, and alphabetical hosts release gives schools extra ticket-selling time.
- Showing how fluid seeding is, Braun said, 'As we move down to the three's and four's there was a lot of discussion amongst the group,' and the list may change again on March 1.
