UNC Wilmington Women's Basketball Schedule 2023-2024: What To Know
There’s nowhere to go but up for the UNC Wilmington women’s basketball team. Here’s the UNCW schedule for this season.
Nicole Woods has a tall task ahead of her as the new head coach of the University of North Carolina Wilmington women’s basketball team.
She inherited a team that was 5-25 last season (2-16 and last in the Coastal Athletic Association) and bounced immediately from the CAA Women’s Basketball Championship. The year before, the Seahawks were 3-26 overall and 0-18 in conference play.
The last time UNCW didn’t finish last in the conference, at least by winning percentage, was the 2019-2020 season. Even then, the Seahawks only won six conference games.

Woods comes in as a proven winner, having been a part of the UNC Charlotte staff for the last decade, helping the 49ers to four Women’s National Invitation Tournament berths, an NCAA Tournament appearance and the title at the 2022 Conference USA Women’s Championship.
However, despite Woods’ track record, the CAA coaches still selected UNCW to finish last in the conference this season, per the 2023-2024 CAA Women’s Basketball Preseason Poll.
Since being hired in April, Woods has been hard at work signing players and building her coaching staff.
UNCW will return seven letter winners this season, including senior guards Evan Miller and Britany Range.
Miller played in all 30 games for the Seahawks last season and turned in career-best averages of seven points and 3.8 rebounds. Range averaged 4.6 points per game and made 38 steals on the year.
Here’s a look at the University of North Carolina Wilmington women’s basketball schedule for the 2023-2024 season.
