FORT MYERS, FLA.- The Florida SouthWestern State Women's Basketball team gathers with fans and other student-athletes in Suncoast Credit Union Arena Monday morning, crossing their fingers that their name would be called as one of eight teams nationally to earn at at-large bid to the NJCAA National Tournament.  Thankfully for sanity purposes, the Buccaneers didn't have to wait long as they were the second team announced during the NJCAA selection show, punching their first ticket to the Big Dance in program history. 

The Bucs drew the #17 seed for the tournament and will square off with #16 Cochise from Arizona in the first game of the tournament in Lubbock, Texas Monday at 11 AM EST.  If FSW was to win that game, they would advance to play #1 Wabash Valley in the quarterfinals on Tuesday at 3 PM EST.
