Final Four Repeat: UConn, UCLA, Texas, SC Return

The same four teams reached the Women's Final Four for the second consecutive season, with undefeated UConn set to face South Carolina in Phoenix.

The Final Four lineup is identical to last season, with UConn, UCLA, Texas, and South Carolina advancing to the sport's final weekend for the second year in a row. The only difference is the matchups and location, as UConn will face South Carolina while UCLA takes on Texas in Phoenix.

Reigning champion UConn (38-0) enters as the undefeated favorite, led by All-Americans Sarah Strong and Azzi Fudd. The Huskies have won 54 straight games, including by an average of 37.8 points this season. They'll face a familiar foe in South Carolina (35-3), which has reached six straight Final Fours under coach Dawn Staley.
