You voted, and we have our quarterfinal participants in the women’s bracket of the Nike/US Lacrosse Magazine Virtual NCAA Tournament.
But we’re switching things up a bit this week. In an effort to align the women’s championship game with the men’s championship game, we’re running women’s quarterfinal polls Monday and Tuesday, with a recap of the results Wednesday.
Then on Thursday and Friday, you’ll have the opportunity to vote in semifinal matchups — bringing us to a fun week of championship-caliber content starting next Monday.
A quick reminder of the tournament rules:
-
The fan choice will count for 50 percent of the result
-
US Lacrosse Magazine experts will account for the other 50 percent of the result
-
Winners and next-round matchups will be revealed once each round finishes
Be sure to monitor our @uslacrossemag Twitter feed Monday night and all day Tuesday to vote. Fans will have 24 hours to select the winner of each game. Check back Wednesday to see who advanced to the semifinals.
