Western women advance to Division II Final Four

The Western women’s basketball team is Final Four bound.

A 58-55 win by the No. 5 Vikings over No. 4 Valdosta State in the quarterfinals gives Western its third Final Four appearance in program history and first since 2013.

This late in the season, it’s always going to be a good team against a good team, and the Blazers were no small task.

Western will look to advance to its first Division II national championship in program history at 6:30 p.m. (Pacific) Wednesday against No. 1 North Georgia. The game will be televised on the CBS Sports Network.
