For the third year in a row, Oklahoma State's women's basketball team will be part of the NCAA Championship field of 64 in 2015.
After logging a fourth consecutive 20-win campaign for the first time in program history, OSU drew a No. 10 seed in the Greensboro Region and will face Florida Gulf Coast in the opening round for the second year in a row. Last year, OSU held on for a 61-60 overtime win en route to earning the school's third NCAA Sweet 16 appearance.
Below is a snapshot of the Cowgirls and their March Madness history as well as information on OSU's current roster and how it has performed at the Big Dance.
