Syracuse women’s basketball: what to watch for in the WNIT vs. Kent State

The Syracuse Orange women’s basketball team (18-12, 9-9) returns to postseason play for the first time in two seasons in Felisha Legette-Jack’s first year at the helm of the program.

Despite barely missing out on the 2023 NCAAW Tournament, Legette-Jack became the first coach in program history to clinch a postseason berth of some kind in year one as a coach. Syracuse will have a chance to make a deep run in this season’s Women’s National Invitation Tournament, and that starts Wednesday night when the Orange take on the Kent State Golden Flashes (21-10, 12-6) in the first round of the 2023 WNIT.
