The Bobcats, led by eight year head coach Zenarae Antoine, played their home games at Strahan Coliseum and were members of the Sun Belt Conference. They finished the season 13–17, 6–12 in Sun Belt play to finish in tenth place. They lost in the first round of the Sun Belt women's tournament to UT Arlington 50-74.
