With the 36 teams added to the Value Add Basketball Game, including every team on which one of our top 40 players of all time played, we scheduled out all the teams we have not used.
The original 20 teams played in a tournament whose bracket is included at the bottom of the blog, eventually won by Pat Summitt's 1998 Tennessee team.
As the WNBA draft kicked off tonight with Caitlin Clark going No. 1, here Iowa team is seeded 5th in our new tournament and will play the 2012 team from Penn State featuring Maggie Lucas as the 32-seed. We list the matchups first, then below the bracket of the first game, we list all teams in alpha order for reference - with their record and opponent(s) faced so far or their first opponent if they have yet to play.
However, first we seeded the 36 teams yet to play, and scheduled 18 game and then after that will reseed the 18 winners and then the lowest four seeds will get a playin game to join the other winners in the Sweet 16. In what we expected would be our most lopsided game, our new top seed Connecticut 2002 (featuring Sue Bird, Diana Taurasi) easily defeated our 36-seed Delaware 2013 (featuring Elena Delle Donne), 75-36. Here is the complete schedule with one or two stars listed with each team.
