Editor's note: The NCAA on March 12 called off its men's and women's basketball tournaments as part of a complete cancellation of all remaining spring and winter championships.

The first automatic bid for the 2020 women's NCAA tournament will be punched March 4, but things really heat up March 8, when NCAA berths are up for grabs in six conferences, including the ACC, Big Ten, Pac-12 and SEC. Championship Week runs through March 15, when the final eight conference champions are decided. The women's NCAA tournament bracket will be unveiled on Selection Monday, March 16 (7 p.m. ET, ESPN/ESPN App).
