The field for the 2023 Women's NCAA Tournament Final Four will officially be set today with two marquee games marking the conclusion of the Elite Eight. No. 1 seeds South Carolina and Virginia Tech are hoping to punch their tickets to Dallas, but fellow top seeds Stanford and Indiana have proven no path is certain by falling faster than virtually anyone could've predicted this tournament.
In the opening game, South Carolina extended its winning streak to 42 games with a win over Maryland to advance to a a third straight Final Four, with a chance to win back-to-back national championships. Aliyah Boston scored 22 points and pulled down 10 rebounds and Zia Cooke did the heavy lifting on the perimeter with 18 points. Maryland got a big night from Diamond Miller in the loss. She led all scorers with 24 points on 9-of-16 shooting and grabbed five boards.
The Gamecocks will take on Iowa in their Final Four matchup, and LSU will take on Seattle 3 Regional No. 1 seed Virginia Tech. The Hokies competed in a fun offensive matchup against Ohio State. Senior center Elizabeth Kitley led Virginia Tech to the program's first ever Final Four with an impressive 25 points and 12 rebounds -- her 56th career double-double, which is the most in school history. It was a real team effort as junior guard Georgia Amoore was also very impactful with 24 points that included four of the Hokies eight 3-pointers.
