The 2025 Big Ten women’s tournament will be bigger than ever in 2025 with the addition of Oregon, Washington, USC and UCLA to the conference. After three straight years of Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes and Caitlin Clark winning the tournament, the champion will likely come from another school and could feature another superstar like USC’s Juju Watkins.
While the Big Ten is now an 18-team league, only the top 15 regular season teams have been invited to Indiana to play in the tournament.
