INDIANAPOLIS – The Seton Hall women's basketball team has been invited to participate in the 2026 Women's Basketball Invitation Tournament (WBIT). The Pirates will host fourth-seeded Missouri in the first round of the event on Thursday, March 19 in historic Walsh Gymnasium at 7:00 p.m.
Â
Tickets are $15 each and can be purchased by calling the Seton Hall Ticket Office at 973-275-HALL (4255) during normal business hours. Tickets for Seton Hall students are again FREE thanks to a generous anonymous donor.
Â
Should Seton Hall advance past the Tigers, the Pirates will face the winner of the game between No. 1 BYU and Alabama A&M in round two on Sunday, March 22. The location is TBD.
Â
WBIT committee seeded only the top half of the 32-team field.  The remaining 16 teams were placed into the bracket by the WBIT Committee as close to their area of natural interest as possible. The 2026 semifinals and championship will be played at Charles Koch Arena on the campus of Wichita State University in Wichita, Kan.
Â
Preliminary WBIT games are being televised on ESPN+, while the semifinals will be on ESPNU, and the final will be on ESPN2. Additional WBIT information can be found on ncaa.com/WBIT.
Â
Seton Hall is the only team in the three-year history of the WBIT to play in all three tournaments.
Â
This is the fifth consecutive season playing in the postseason for the Pirates. The Hall has now played in the postseason during 10 of 13 seasons with Anthony Bozzella at the helm. Of the three seasons they didn't compete in postseason play, the 2020 postseason was canceled and the Pirates declined a WNIT invitation in 2021, both due to COVID concerns.
