Non-conference play ends after the Lady Bears’ home date with Central Arkansas on Dec. 22, before traveling to Florida International on Jan. 4 for their Conference USA debut.
The Lady Bears should contend for the Conference USA title in their first season in the league. Beth Cunningham, entering her fourth season as head coach, will have a new-look roster, but will return up-and-coming standouts like Kaemyn Bekemeier and Lainie Douglas.
