WBIT

[Vowelguy]

WBIT is the tournament that started last year by the NCAA. It has 32 teams. Illinois beat Villanova to win the first title.

"The first 4 out" from the NCAAs get the top seeds.
Any school that won its regular season but didnt make the NCAAs also gets an autobid.

That's looking like:

• Gonzaga
• James Madison
• UTSA

The start of the WBIT has pushed the non-NCAA-affilidated-WNIT (with 48 teams) to the 3rd-level tourney. It will get teams that dont make the NCAA or WBIT.

Seton Hall, Marquette, and Villanova should make the WBIT or the WNIT.
