STILLWATER – The Oklahoma State Cowgirls are dancing in the NCAA Tournament as a No. 8 seed. They’ll face No. 9 seed Princeton in Region 2 Sacramento, with the winner going to face No. 1 overall seed UCLA.
“I think it will be like that for the rest of my life,” Jacie Hoyt said of the excitement of seeing Oklahoma State make the NCAA tournament bracket. “It’s something that I will never take for granted; you know I’ve been talking to our team a lot about that just that a very, very small percentage of teams get to hear their name called today and to be a part of it is just a huge blessing and something that is an expectation, but that we also don’t want to take for granted.”
