The Baha Mar Women’s Championship and Baha Mar Hoops Pink Flamingo Championship will begin on Monday, Nov. 25 and finish on Wednesday, Nov. 27, just in time for Thanksgiving.
The UConn Huskies, soon to be the No. 1 team in the nation, should be able to win the Women’s Championship, while the LSU Tigers, also ranked in the top 10, will be favored to win the Pink Flamingo Championship. Oregon State, Ole Miss, Boston College, Washington, NC State and Southern also are competing in the events, both of which are in Nassau, Bahamas at the Baha Mar Convention Center.
UConn’s to lose
UConn is 4-0 and rolling, while Oregon State is 1-4 and developing. This should be an easy and quick night for the Huskies. They’ll dominate the Beavers early and move on to the title game on Wednesday. They are just far too stacked with players like Paige Bueckers and Sarah Strong for Oregon State to pose any threat. Even in a one-off game, there isn’t a logical chance for an upset.
The other matchup in the Women’s Championship bracket features Ole Miss and Boston College. BC has had a nice 6-1 start to the year, but Ole Miss has looked really good. Their only defeat came at the hands of USC on opening night, and that was a two-point game.
