The 2014 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament was played in March and April 2014, with the Final Four played April 6–8.[1] The Ohio Valley Conference served as the host institution.[2] The Final Four was played at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.[3][4][5]
Tennessee continued its streak of making every NCAA women's basketball tournament at 33 consecutive appearances. Connecticut (who made their seventh consecutive Final Four overall) and Notre Dame faced each other in the NCAA Final. Both were undefeated heading into the championship game, making it the first ever match up of two undefeated teams in the championship game. Connecticut prevailed, 79–58, to win their ninth national championship.
The previous day, Connecticut also won the men's tournament. It was just the second time in NCAA history the same school had won both the men's and women's tournament; UConn first accomplished that feat in 2004.[6]
