The Bulls have won 12 of their last 14, never trailing in their final two AAC tourney contests. They embarrassed ACC champion Duke, 65-56, at home on Dec. 21 and lost by only four to Louisville (a No. 7 seed in this year’s tourney) and seven to Mississippi State (a No. 9 seed) in late November contests.

Michigan and its star freshmen are taking their game to the sport’s biggest stage. Michigan will be a No. 6 seed in the NCAA women’s basketball Tournament and open against No. 11 seed Iowa State or Princeton. The announcement was made Sunday evening during a televised selection show. Michigan will play it’s first-round game on Friday.
