WNIT First Round in the Little Apple

For the fourth straight season, Kansas State women's basketball will make a postseason appearance as the Wildcats have accepted a bid to play in the 2018 Postseason WNIT and will host Saint Louis in the first round on Thursday. This will be K-State's sixth appearance in the Postseason WNIT and the first since reaching the second round of the 2015 WNIT. With K-State's bid into the Postseason WNIT, the Wildcats are one of seven Big 12 schools to earn a women's basketball postseason bid.

The Wildcats (16-15, 7-11 Big 12) will be opposed by the Billikens (17-15, 9-7 Atlantic 10). K-State and Saint Louis will meet for the third time and the first time since Dec. 6, 2003. K-State is 14-4 in its previous four WNIT Tournament appearances in 1999, 2006, 2007, 2013 and 2015. The Wildcats captured the 2006 WNIT title for the first postseason title in school history in front of a sell-out crowd of 13,340 fans.

Tickets for K-State's first round matchup with Saint Louis are available now, by calling the K-State Ticket Office at (800) 221-CATS, visiting the ticket page or by stopping by the K-State Athletic Ticket Office in Bramlage Coliseum. Tickets are priced at $15 for chair backs, $10 for adult general admission and $5 for youth and senior citizens. All K-State students will receive free entry by showing a valid K-State ID at the door.
