EIU will travel to the #3 seed University of Wisconsin to play the host in the second game of the regional pod. The first match will feature the #6 seed UTEP and North Carolina. Both matches will be played on Thursday, December 4th, with Eastern Illinois' match starting 30 minutes after the conclusion of UTEP and UNC, which will start at 4:30 PM CT.
