The 2025 Women’s Final Four field is set after No. 2 seed UConn defeated No. 1 seed USC 78-64 on Monday night in the last Elite Eight matchup.

Paige Buckers led UConn with 31 points, while freshman Sarah Strong added 22 points and 17 rebounds as the Huskies dominated a USC team missing star JuJu Watkins, who suffered a torn ACL earlier in the tournament. This marks UConn’s 24th trip to the Final Four.

Earlier on Monday, Texas secured a spot in the Final Four with a 58-47 win against TCU, limiting TCU to 26.7% shooting. Hailey Van Lith and Sedona Prince struggled offensively, while Madison Booker was a standout for Texas with 18 points and six rebounds.

South Carolina managed to defeat Duke 54-50 despite a lackluster offensive outing, while UCLA triumphed over LSU in a close game where Kiki Rice had an off night, scoring only eight points but making valuable contributions through assists.
