March is here, and it’s time for the madness of college basketball to begin. On Wednesday, the 2025 Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament will kick off at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
The 2025 Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament is set to be bigger than ever, thanks to the conference’s expansion with the additions of Oregon, Washington, USC, and UCLA.
With 18 teams battling it out in the Big Ten, the road to the championship just got tougher. But not every team gets to pack their bags for Indiana—only the top 15 teams in the regular season have earned a ticket to compete.
After three straight years of Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes dominating the tournament, a new champion is almost guaranteed to emerge. Will we see another superstar rise to the occasion, like USC’s Juju Watkins? You don’t want to miss a second of the action, and we have you covered with all the streaming information for this tournament.
