On a Wednesday, it begins again. Women's March Madness is here, kicking off with two First Four matchups.
Nebraska and Richmond will face off for the No. 11 seed in Region 2 while Missouri State and Stephen F. Austin will compete for No. 16 in Region 3. Winners will play Baylor and Texas, respectively.
First Four matchups aren't a chance at the complete bracket, they're a chance at proving a team's worth, proving they belong, proving they are March ready. Are these squads tournament ready, or does their postseason journey end as soon as it begins?
Here's how to watch the Women's March Madness action begin with a schedule and TV channels for Wednesday's games.
