Thu Mar 13 05:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Tight Race for Top NCAA Women’s Basketball Seeds

**Las Vegas, NV** – The Mountain West women’s basketball tournament continues, with the No. 4 seed San Diego State Aztecs facing the No. 2 seed Wyoming Cowgirls on March 12th in the championship game. Fans can watch the game live via DirecTV Stream or fuboTV (both offering free trials) and ESPN+. Meanwhile, the race for the top seeds in the upcoming NCAA tournament is heating up. Unlike previous years, no team has emerged as a clear frontrunner.

Four teams – UCLA, South Carolina, Texas, and Southern California – are all vying for the coveted No. 1 seed. This year’s tournament marks only the second time in 19 years that no teams enter with zero or one loss. This is largely attributed to a trend of top teams scheduling challenging non-conference games, leading to a more competitive and unpredictable season.

South Carolina, led by Dawn Staley, boasts an impressive record but has losses to UCLA, UConn, and two against Texas. UCLA, with only two losses (both to USC), and Texas, with losses to South Carolina and Notre Dame, also present strong cases. USC, with wins over UCLA and UConn, is another contender. The final seeding will be announced on Sunday. The increased competitiveness among top teams is widely praised for improving the overall quality of women’s college basketball.
