Do you know where?

That has not been determined

At Cal Poly or San Diego

For sure??? And is Torry out for the season or is there a chance she can play?

I think the host is determined by who draws more attendance. According to last year, LG would host both those schools (outdraw each by almost 2,500). http://web1.ncaa.org/app_data/weeklyrpi/2013WBBattend1.html
 
"The WNIT understands that many schools interested in hosting cannot hold their facilities for the entirety of the Tournament, but if teams chose to hold one or two dates open in each Round along with the Championship date, that helps ensure that those schools can be considered host sites."

Note: Wyoming in winning the 2007 WNIT hosted throughout the WNIT Tournament hosting teams in succession: Nevada - Missouri - Oregon - South Dakota St. - Kansas St. - Wisconsin.

Keep winning LG!!!

Unfortunately and sadly Torry's LG career is over. Robin said she "blew her knee out pretty good" and will have surgery. To add to the misery he said Carly essentially did the same. Talk about a just flat out brutal double whammy @ the end of the year...Sccheeesh. :(
 
Alright. So, attendance only partially determines who hosts...

How the host schools are chosen
The host site for each game is selected by the WNIT committee based on several factors such as fan base, host bids, facility availability, tournament seed, travel constraints, etc. A team's desire or ability to host or not to host has absolutely no bearing on that team being chosen for the 64-team field.
