BATON ROUGE - A second straight SWAC Tournament Championship meant a second straight automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament for Southern women's basketball.
The Lady Jags found out just where they'd be dancing at a Selection Show watch party at TJ Ribs Sunday night.
Southern was penciled in as a No. 16 seed, and will play Samford in the First Four of the tournament. That game is set for Thursday at 6 p.m. on ESPN2 in Columbia, South Carolina.
If Southern wins, they would then face No. 1 seed South Carolina.
After receiving a trip to March Madness last season, the Lady Jags became the first SWAC program to win an NCAA Tournament game when they beat UC San Diego 68-56 in a First Four game.
