About

Women’s Basketball

Santa Clara Women’s Basketball continues to build strong momentum as one of the rising programs in the West Coast Conference. Under the leadership of first-year head coach Loree Payne, the Broncos delivered one of the most successful seasons in program history while continuing to represent Santa Clara with excellence in competition, academics, and leadership.

The Broncos finished the season 24–10 overall and 13–5 in WCC play, tying the program record for conference wins. The team set multiple program records, including points in a season, points per game, field goal attempts, three-pointers, three-point attempts, rebounds, and blocks. Four Broncos were named to All-West Coast Conference teams, and the program earned a postseason berth in the Women’s Basketball Invitation Tournament (WBIT).

Your support helps sustain this momentum and ensures our student-athletes have the resources needed to compete at the highest level. Gifts to Women’s Basketball help provide critical funding for:

  • Recruiting and developing exceptional student-athletes who represent Santa Clara with excellence both academically and athletically
  • Coaching, sports performance, and academic support resources that foster the holistic development of our student-athletes
  • Team travel, competitive scheduling, and program operations that position the Broncos to compete for WCC championships and postseason opportunities

Women’s Basketball also plays an important role in empowering female student-athletes and providing visible role models for the campus community, demonstrating the leadership, dedication, and competitive excellence that define Santa Clara Athletics.

Your support helps ensure the continued growth and success of Santa Clara Women’s Basketball and the student-athletes who proudly represent the Broncos.
