Pitt to Open 16-Game Conference Slate against National Champion Irish
PITTSBURGH – The University of Pittsburgh women's basketball team will open its 16-game Atlantic Coast Conference schedule on the road against 2018 National Champion Notre Dame Thursday, Jan. 3, 2019, announced Tuesday.
"We're excited about the challenge at hand, getting to play in the best conference in the country," first-year head coach Lance White said. "The ACC is the toughest conference in women's basketball, with 10 teams competing in the postseason last year, eight competing in the NCAA Tournament, and two making it to the Final Four. Our student-athletes have been working hard to prepare for this. I look forward to the start of official practice and watching our team develop."
The Panthers' slate features home-and-home contests against 2018 NCAA Tournament participants Louisville (away Jan. 27, home March 3) and Syracuse (home Jan. 17, away Feb. 21). The Cards reached the Final Four, falling to runner-up Mississippi State, while the Orange fell in the first round to Oklahoma State.
