Women’s basketball has been on the rise in the Ivy League for a decade and now the conference can boast three teams in the NCAA Tournament for the first-time ever

The Ivy League women's basketball tournament is a small one, but it features three dangerous teams. Columbia, Princeton and Harvard all have more 20 wins this season and are the top three teams in the conference. Penn slots in as the fourth seed with a 15-12 overall record, including 6-8 record in conference.

Harvard women’s basketball won the Ivy League Tournament championship for the first time in program history, as the Crimson relied on a full team effort to defeat the Columbia Lions 74-71 on Saturday and secure its first berth in the NCAA basketball tournament since 2007.
