So, the championship game tomorrow is No. 2 Quinnipiac and No. 1 Fairfield. Predictable.

@taliagoodmannwbb.bsky.social had it first. But sources told The Next that Siena junior guard Teresa Seppala will enter the transfer portal.

Seppala averaged 16.7 points per game, which led the team, and was a unanimous All-MAAC First Teamer.
