We have officially reached March, and for a majority of the women’s NCAA basketball teams, Championship Week is here.

A few of the smaller women’s conferences still play into next week, but for the […]
The 2025-26 All-Big Ten Women’s Basketball Teams were announced by the conference on Tuesday morning, and the Gophers were well represented. Four of Minnesota’s five starters were named All-Big Ten, and the fifth was honored as Minnesota’s sportsmanship league honor. As you you expect from a team that finishes fourth in the conference and has […]

They finished the regular season with a 22-7 record, 13-5 in the Big Ten, their most conference wins since 1985. And with their win at Illinois […]
The Gophers battled in the second half to take the lead and hold on to a 78-73 win over UCLA. Both teams shot the ball very well, but Minnesota shot over 62% in the second half and surged ahead in the final minutes to upste the Bruins. Bobby Durkin led the way for the Gophers […]

Its a […]
The Michigan Wolverines beat the Minnesota Gophers 77-67, clinching a share of the Big Ten title and improving their record to 26-2. The very limited Gopher roster played the Wolverines to within 32-28 at halftime and maintained that four-point cushion for the first 10 minutes of the second half before Michigan went on a run […]
no problem

We nearly have made it to the end of another women’s hockey season. The start of the year way back in September seems so far away, and with several top teams missing their best players for the final month of the regular season at the Olympics—it’s ending on a big of a weird note as […]
