Georgia Womens Basketball Secures NCAA Tournament Spot, Aiming for First Round Win
The Georgia Lady Bulldogs are heading to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in two years, securing the number seven seed with a 22-9 record. Theyll face the winner of the Virginia vs. Arizona State play-in game in the first round, hosted in Iowa City as part of the Sacramento bracket.
The teams impressive turnaround, climbing from a 13-19 finish last year to a 22-9 record this season, has earned them the best turnaround in program history and a spot in the top 25 polls for the fourth straight week. Notable wins include top 20 victories and a historic upset against Vanderbilt.
Standout sophomore Dani Carnegie leads the team with 18.1 points per game, the highest for Georgia since 2006, while Mia Woolfolk contributes 13.4 points per game. Coach Katie Abrahamson-Henderson, in her thirteenth NCAA Tournament appearance with four different programs, is eager to make some noise in Iowa City with her balanced scoring attack.
