The UNI women’s basketball team will play in the 2022 WNIT.

The Panthers will begin post-season play this week on Thursday, March 17 against the Kansas City Roos’ at home in the McLeod Center. This will be the second time that UNI has hosted the opening round of the WNIT tournament in five years and the first since 2018 against Milwaukee. Tip-off on Thursday is set for 6 p.m. from Cedar Falls.

UNI made their longest run in the WNIT Tournament last season, getting all the way to the semifinals against Ole Miss. The Panthers were the Rockford Regional Champions with wins against Dayton, Creighton, and Saint Louis with junior guard Kam Finley named as the regional MVP along with making the All-Tournament team.
