"We feel privileged at Bucknell to be surrounded by a community of steadfast friends, families, alumni and fans dedicated to enhancing the quality of experience for the women in our basketball program. Contributing to the Fast Break Club during One Herd One Day stands out as the most impactful way to support our student-athletes, leaving an enduring mark on their journey. To everyone who generously gives today and throughout the year, your commitment plays a pivotal role in our continued success. Thank you for being a driving force behind our achievements." - Head Coach Trevor Woodruff

It has been a banner decade for the Bison women's basketball program. The program’s run of nine straight winning seasons and six straight 20-win seasons came to an end in 2022-23. From 2015-16 through 2021-22, the Bison fashioned a 159-47 record, including an eye-popping 100-16 conference ledger. Bucknell won league titles and made NCAA Tournament appearances in 2017 and 2019, and the team was favored again in both of the pandemic-impacted seasons. In 2022, the Bison fell at American in the league championship game but then won a first-round game in the WNIT for the second time in program history. Over the last two seasons, the program has been hit by key graduation losses and injuries, but Trevor Woodruff has seen his young squad improve significantly as the 2023-24 has progressed, culminating with a Patriot League Tournament win over American. Just as strong in the classroom as on the hardwood, the team led all Bison programs with an outstanding 3.64 team GPA in the fall 2023 semester.
