Enjoying continued success and increased popularity, the 2002 Southeastern Conference Women's Basketball Tournament moves to Nashville, Tenn. The Gaylord Entertainment Center (16,304) will serve as the tournament's home.

The 2001 tournament, played at The Pyramid in Memphis, proved to be another success for the league. The total tournament attendance of 32,793 ranks fifth all-time in tournament history.

The SEC Women's Basketball Tournament has been played in Chattanooga, Tenn., in seven of the last nine seasons. The top four attended tournaments have been in Chattanooga with the 1999 tournament drawing a league-record 43,221 fans.

The 1999 SEC Championship Game, with Tennessee defeating Georgia, 85-69, continues to be the highest attended championship game in SEC history with 11,163 fans in attendance.

The winner of the 11-game tournament will receive the league's automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament. The tournament seeds and conference champion will be determined by the 14-game regular-season SEC schedule. The top four seeds earn a first-round bye.

Pictured is Georgia's Head Coach Andy Landers. Georgia won the 2001 SEC Tournament in Memphis, 62-60 over Vanderbilt.
