Third seed Oklahoma State will meet 2nd seed LSU in the second game of Saturday's NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament regional semifinal in New Orleans.

The first game of the day, at 11 a.m., will feature top seed North Carolina against the fourth seed, Louisville. The Cowgirls will meet LSU in the second game, scheduled for approximately 1:30 p.m. at the New Orleans Arena.

Oklahoma State is playing in the Sweet 16 for the first time since the 1991 season and for the second time in program history. The Cowgirls and Texas A&M, the finalists in the Big 12 Tournament, are the only two Big 12 entrants remaining in the NCAA Tournament. The conference set an NCAA record when all eight of its NCAA Tournament entries picked up first-round victories.

The 27-7 Cowgirls will be facing the 29-5 Tigers for the first time since the 1997 season. OSU is 0-3 all-time against LSU. The Tigers have played in four consecutive Final Fours. 

If OSU wins on Saturday, it will advance to Monday night's regional championship game.

The Oklahoma State women's basketball team will depart for the 2008 NCAA Tournament regional Thursday afternoon with a send-off planned at the Stillwater Municipal Airport. 

Fans, friends and family are invited to be at the Stillwater Municipal Airport at 1:15 p.m. for the official send-off. 

Fans attending the send-off are asked to park across the street from the terminal.
