GREENSBORO, N.C. – The UNC Greensboro (UNCG) women's basketball team and Head Coach Trina Patterson have announced their 2026-27 season schedule.
 
"The 2026-27 schedule will bring new experiences and we are thrilled to compete in the inaugural Southern Conference (SoCon)/Big South Challenge," said Patterson. "Our non-conference schedule also includes road games at Richmond, Virginia Tech and Clemson, all who received NCAA Tournament invitations last season.

With the addition of Tennessee Tech, the SoCon schedule increases to 16 games and allows for different travel alignments. Finally, our goal is to continue making Bodford Arena one of the toughest places to play. We appreciate the support and energy our crowd brings each game."

Patterson returns for her 11th season at the helm of the UNCG women's basketball team, leading the Spartans to 160 victories during her time. The three-time SoCon Coach of the Year, Patterson saw her winningest season as a head coach in the 2024-25 season, leading UNCG to a 25-7 overall record and its second NCAA Tournament appearance in program history. The Spartans concluded the 2025-26 season 14-16 overall and 4-10 in the SoCon.
 
Among the returners for the Spartans, includes Leyla Minor, Kristina Rakotobe, Joelle Davis and Salimata Traore. The 2026-27 squad will feature 11 newcomers, including eight freshmen and three transfers.
