Earning the WAC's automatic qualifier to the WNIT for the second straight season, the Bakersfield Roadrunners will have a short trip to Los Angeles to open the tournament at UCLA.
The Bruins (13-18) earned the Pac-12's automatic qualifier after finishing sixth in conference play and having the five conference schools ahead of them selected to the NCAA Tournament. UCLA is led by 14.6 ppg from Nirra Fields.
The Roadrunners will have a bit of a UCLA expert sitting on their bench as assistant coach Nikki Blue starred for the Bruins from 2002-06, starting all four years at point guard.
