The standards behind the story
Sources & Methodology
An independent perspective on women’s college basketball, grounded in facts and accountable to the reader.
The game, on the record
Schedules, scores, standings and rankings are supplied by BALLDONTLIE NCAAW and checked against official basketball sources where appropriate. Game times can change; each game’s latest published status takes precedence.
Facts first. An original point of view.
Our editorial work draws on official athletics programs, governing bodies, record books and reputable reporting. VERDICT writes its own analysis, distinguishes interpretation from fact, and links to the factual foundation.
Corrections matter
When a material fact changes, we check the affected story and update or remove it as needed. Substantive corrections are acknowledged, with updated dates retained so readers can understand what changed.
Respect for the image
Photography is used only when it is licensed, owned, public domain or otherwise cleared for use. Photographer credits, license terms and required attribution accompany the work. Being publicly viewable does not make an image free to reuse.
