They may have missed out on the NCAA Tournament, but four teams are still fighting for a title. The WNIT semifinals are set to be played in Harrisonburg, Virginia and Tucson, Arizona on Wednesday, Apr. 3.

James Madison University will host Northwestern University at 7 p.m. EST. On the other side of the country, Texas Christian University will travel to face the University of Arizona at 9:30 p.m. EST.

Players are just happy for the chance to play.

“It’s a blessing to keep playing right now,” Arizona forward Tee Tee Starks said after her team defeated Wyoming in the quarterfinals. “Everybody’s not playing right now, and we have the opportunity to. So, we don’t want to take this opportunity for granted.”
