CLEVELAND, Ga. (October 27, 2022) – The Truett McConnell University women's basketball is set to begin their 2022-23 season Friday, October 28, at Faulkner University, with tipoff set for 1:00 p.m. (CST).

The Lady Bears had a historical 2021-22 season, finishing with a record of 18-14, 13-11 AAC, which set a new record for most wins and most conference wins in a single season. The Lady Bears made an appearance at the AAC Tournament, where they fell in the quarterfinals to the No. 2 seed Milligan University. Senior Re'Tavia Floyd was featured earning a spot on the All-Conference First Team, as well as ranking No. 8 in the NAIA in total 3-point field goals made (94-249).

"This season we are looking to build off the success we had last year," said Head Coach Tiek Fields. "We have a good mix of returners and newcomers this year. Leadership from the upperclassmen will be key as AAC play continues to increase in competition. As we all develop and gain confidence in ourselves, I think the sky is the limit."

Floyd, Camilla Howell and Quan Holton are amongst the group of key returners, along with graduate Student Natalie Nixon and junior Alysee Dobbs. TMU will feature a total of seven incomers.
The Lady Bears conference home opener is scheduled for Tuesday, November 8, against Appalachian Athletic Conference member, St. Andrews University. Tipoff is set for 5:30 p.m.
