What channel is Iowa vs. FDU on today? Time, TV schedule, live stream to watch NCAA women's game

The journey begins now. No. 2 Iowa hosts No. 15 Farleigh Dickinson in the first round of the NCAA women's basketball tournament.

Two years after their last national championship appearance, the Hawkeyes have reloaded. The trio of Ava Heiden, Hannah Stuelke and Chazadi Wright already creates a solid front throughout the entire court, but the depth is there when needed.Despite losing its final game of the regular season in the Big Ten championship, Iowa is ready to run.

The Knights are no easy opponent, though. Three players average double-digits points and three average more than 5.0 rebounds per game. They won the NEC Tournament for a reason, and despite early-season losses to power schools Purdue, Notre Dame and Rutgers, this first round game could be a bracket-buster.
