Let's Dance: Pace Basketball Goes to NCAA Tournaments
Time to dance! Congratulations to our Pace University men’s and women’s basketball programs for their selections to their respective NCAA tournament fields! It is the first time both teams have made the national tournament together since 2007.
The No. 7 seed Pace women's team will be playing against No. 2 seed Chestnut Hill in the NCAA Division II Women’s Basketball East Regional on Friday, March 11 at 2:30 p.m. ET. The semifinals will take place on Saturday, March 12 with the Regional Final on Monday, March 14 at host-school Southern New Hampshire University. The Blue and Gold were rightfully rewarded after recently completing one of the best seasons in program history. Pace's 14-5 conference record earned the Setters a share of their first-ever NE10 regular-season championship. Head Coach Carrie Seymour has now led Pace to 11 NCAA Tournaments during her remarkable career in Pleasantville. Earlier this season, she became just the 17th active head coach to eclipse 500 career wins.

The Pace University men’s basketball team won their first outright NE10 Southwest Division regular-season championship title in February. On Sunday, the Setters were announced as the No. 5 seed in the NCAA Division II Men’s Basketball East Regional and will play against No. 4 seed Dominican in the first round on Saturday, March 12 at 7:30 p.m. The Setters' success has been based on tremendous defense and a balanced attack. Pace ranked in the top-four of the NE10 in scoring defense, blocks, and steals this season. Coach Healing's squad put together an 18-8 regular-season record (14-5, NE10) before advancing to the Northeast-10 Conference semifinals for the first time since 2007.
