Tournament Overview
The NEC Women’s Basketball Tournament will consist of an eight-team playoff format with all games played at the home of the higher seed. After the quarterfinals, the teams will be reseeded so the highest remaining seed plays the lowest remaining seed in the semifinals.
NEC Tournament quarterfinal play commences on Sunday, March 9, followed by the semifinal round on Wednesday, March 12. Both semfinals are tentatively slated to air on ESPN3. The championship game, to be televised by ESPNU, will be contested on Sunday, March 16 at 3:00 pm.
The women returned to a high-seed hosting format in 2011. The previous format in which a single campus site hosted the quarterfinals and semifinals, followed by the highest remaining seed hosting the championship game was utilized in 1998, from 2002-04 and from 2008-10. The NEC employed a high-seed hosting format from 1991-97 and 2005-07, had the tournament contested at one campus site (Wagner, in 1999), as well as at a municipal arena (Sovereign Bank Arena in Trenton in 2000-01).
