AMHERST, Mass. – The Atlantic 10 Conference announced on Thursday night that Massachusetts has clinched a First Round home game for the league's upcoming women's basketball tournament. Scheduled for Tues., March 3 at 7 p.m., the Minutewomen will host a to-be-determined opponent at the Mullins Center.
It marks the first time that Mullins will host a tournament contest since the 1998 A-10 Championship Game.

The most victories in a season since 1997-98, UMass accomplished the feat in part thanks to an 11-game winning streak which was a program-record and ranked as high as third-longest in the country among active runs.
