The Atlantic Sun Conference together with Florida Gulf Coast University announced the complete 2026‑27 women's basketball schedule, setting the stage for a highly anticipated season.
Action kicks off on January 9, 2027, with a 14‑game conference slate that blends seven home contests and seven away trips, promising a balanced road map for the Eagles.
Early in the campaign, FGCU will enjoy a stretch of home games against Stetson, Queens and West Florida, giving the team a chance to build momentum on its own floor.
The matchup versus West Florida marks the first-ever Division I meeting between the two programs, adding an extra layer of excitement for fans and players alike.
Following the initial home stretch, the Eagles embark on a four‑game road trip beginning January 21, 2027, traveling to face Lipscomb, Jacksonville and North Florida before returning to Alico Arena in February.
In early February, FGCU will host both Lipscomb and Bellarmine at Alico Arena, offering a chance to showcase the new‑look roster in front of a home crowd.
Jacksonville Showdown
The ASUN Tournament is slated for early March 2027 in Jacksonville, Florida, where the championship game will be played on Monday, March 8, at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena.
Last season, the Eagles captured a dominant 94‑28 victory over Bellarmine in the first round before falling 70‑63 to Stetson in the quarterfinals, a run that ended the team's reign atop the conference.
Coach Raina Harmon, now in her second year at the helm, is focused on restoring the program's former glory, leveraging a roster that returns seven veterans while integrating six fresh additions.
With a blend of experienced talent and promising newcomers, the Eagles aim to translate early home‑court advantages into a sustained push for the ASUN title.
