The Wake Forest women's basketball team will continue postseason play on Sunday, March 22, playing at home against the winner of Georgetown/Winthrop in the second round of the Women's National Invitation Tournament. The game time will be announced later this week.
It will beWake Forest's third postseason appearance since the NCAA Tournament was established in 1982. In 1988 former head coach Joe Sanchez guided the Deacons through two games in the NCAA Tournament. Coach Mike Petersen led Wake Forest to the third round of the WNIT in 2005.
The Deacons are 19-11, and a win in the tournament would push the team to the 20-win mark for the first time since the 1987-88 season.
Associate Head Coach Natasha Adair and Assistant Coach Bob Clark of Wake Forest both worked as assistants at Georgetown from 1998 through 2004.
