Syracuse women’s basketball: how the Orange can clinch a bid to the 2024 NCAA Tournament

The Syracuse Orange women’s basketball team enters the upcoming 2023-2024 campaign with a wave of optimism following a successful first season under coach Felisha Legette-Jack.

To recap, the Orange improved their record from 11-18 overall (.379) in 2022 to 20-13 (.606) last year, which included a five-win improvement in the ACC, a near-berth to the NCAA Tournament and a trip to the Round of 16 in the Women’s National Invitation Tournament.

Syracuse’s achievements this past season were the most successful of any first-year head coach in program history. With the foundational building blocks laid out and a productive offseason to try to improve the roster for this coming year, Legette-Jack and the Orange will now have their eyes set on looking to make the NCAA Tournament for the first time since the 2020-2021 season.
