The top two seeds in the 2026 Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament will face off for the championship.
No. 1 UCLA (30-1) will battle No. 2 Iowa (26-5) Sunday, March 8 inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The Bruins are all-but a lock to be a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament in two weeks’ time, while an Iowa win over the Bruins could potentially vault the Hawkeyes to the 1-seed line as well. Regardless, both teams will be hosting first- and- second-round games in March Madness.
Before then, though, it’s time to crown a Big Ten champion. Here is how you can watch the game.
