ESPN: 6-seed (Fort Worth Region)
The Lady Raiders remain a No. 6 seed for Charlie Creme in his sixth projection in a row. The good news for Tech fans is he has the team in a Fort Worth Region, meaning if the Lady Raiders advanced to the second weekend, they’d play within driving distance.
That isn’t so much the case in the opening weekend, which has Tech in Iowa City with host Iowa as the No. 3 seed. Creme has the Lady Raiders facing a play-in 11 seed of Stanford or Virginia Tech. Projected Southland Conference champion McNeese rounds out the group as a 14 seed.
