For the first time since 2015, the women’s basketball team was selected to participate in a postseason tournament. They received an at-large bid to the 2023 Women’s Postseason National Invitational Tournament.
The selection comes after the team made history in the American Athletic Conference tournament by beating the No. 1 seed, South Florida. It was the first time a No. 1 seed had ever been knocked out in the quarterfinals.
The 2015 squad was the No. 13 seed in the Albany region of that year’s Women’s National Collegiate Athletic Association tournament after they won the Missouri Valley Conference tournament.
