The Tennessee Lady Vols’ one-point loss to top-ranked South Carolina March 9 proved to be a benefit for coach Kellie Harper’s team as it earned a No. 6 seed to start the 2024 Women’s NCAA Tournament.
Tennessee (19-12) will face 11-seed Green Bay (27-6) Saturday on ESPN in Raleigh, North Carolina, as part of the Portland 4 regional.
Tennessee went into that game against South Carolina having won three of its previous four games and was 4-3 during the month of February. This is Harper’s fourth straight NCAA tournament appearance in five seasons as coach.
