Division II women's basketball champions for the NCAA.[1] The 2015 Elite Eight is being held in Sioux Falls, South Dakota at the Sanford Pentagon. The venue will also host the Elite Eight in 2016 and 2018,[2] except for the final game in 2016. Because the 2015–16 season is the 25th in which the NCAA has sponsored national championships in women's basketball, the Division II and Division III championship games will be held at the site of that year's Division I Final Four, Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.[3] The 2017 Elite Eight will be held in Columbus, Ohio at Alumni Hall on the campus of Ohio Dominican University.[2]
