GREENSBORO, NC – The Atlantic Coast Conference announced the 2022-23 league-wide women's basketball schedule Wednesday morning. Game times and TV designations will be announced at a later date.
The Panthers' 18-game conference slate will feature nine home games at the Petersen Events Center including five against teams that advanced to the NCAA Tournament a season ago.
Pitt opens their conference slate at home Sunday, Dec. 18 as 2022 NCAA Tournament semifinalist Louisville comes to town for the first of two meetings on the year. The Panthers will then close out 2022 with a road game against Wake Forest on Thursday, Dec. 29.
On New Year's Day, the Panthers will play host to the Miami Hurricanes at the Petersen Events Center before hitting the road for back-to-back contests away from home against Syracuse (Thursday, Jan. 5) and Louisville (Sunday, Jan. 8). Three of the next four will be at home as Pitt welcomes Clemson (Sunday, Jan. 15), Virginia Tech (Thursday, Jan. 19) and North Carolina (Thursday, Jan. 26). Pitt will travel to Florida State Sunday, Jan. 22 and close out the month of January in Boston as they take on Boston College Sunday, Jan. 29.
The Panthers will have four home and four road games in the month of February as they host Virginia (Sunday, Feb. 5), Boston College (Thursday, Feb. 16), Notre Dame (Sunday, Feb. 19) and Syracuse (Thursday, Feb. 23). The four road games will be at Duke (Thursday, Feb. 2), Notre Dame (Thursday, Feb. 9), Georgia Tech (Sunday, Feb. 12) and NC State (Sunday, Feb. 26).
The 2023 ACC Women's Basketball Tournament will be held March 1-5 at the Greensboro Coliseum for the 23rd time in the last 24 years.
Season tickets for the upcoming 2022-23 campaign are $50 and are available to purchase HERE. Group tickets, and single-game tickets will be available at a later date.
Led by fifth-year head coach Lance White, the Panthers return seven of their eight top scorers from a season ago including senior captain Dayshanette Harris who led the squad averaging 9.6 points, 2.9 assists and 2.9 rebounds while shooting a career-high 34.0% from behind the arc. Harris also became the fastest player in program history to record at least 700 points, 250 rebounds and 175 assists, doing so in just 60 career games.
Fellow senior Amber Brown has started all 80 career games for the Panthers at forward and is coming off of her best offensive season of her career last season as she finished averaging 9.3 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.9 assists while shooting 47.2% from the floor. Liatu King will be looking to build on her impressive sophomore season that saw her average career-highs in scoring (7.5 ppg) and rebounding (7.1 rpg) while also posting a team-high four double-doubles. Destiny Strother is looking to make another step this season after coming off the bench and averaging 5.3 ppg while connecting on a career-high 44 three-pointers. Senior Emy Hayford started a career-high 19 games and posted 4.2 ppg and 1.8 apg across 20.0 mpg a season ago.
A group of five newcomers (three freshmen and two transfers) will look to make an immediate impact on the squad that finished off last season with a 11-19 record while posting their best non-conference mark (9-2) since 2008-09. Gabby Hutcherson came to Pittsburgh after two seasons at Ohio State while Channise Lewis transferred in after four seasons at perennial power Maryland. The freshman trio of Aislin Malcolm, Avery "Ace" Strickland and Marley Washenitz look poised to provide Pitt with some much needed shooting for the highly-anticipated 2022-23 season.
