AMERICAN EAGLES WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

Patriot LeagueD1winter

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Competing from Washington, D.C. since 1893, American University's women's basketball program operates within the Patriot League at an institution serving 13,019 students. Head coach Kelly Killion oversees a 13-player roster that finished the season with a 6-19 overall record, including a 3-6 conference mark. Home performance at Bender Arena proved more competitive than road results, with the Eagles posting a 4-8 home record against a 2-11 away record, suggesting venue familiarity provides some advantage in the competitive Patriot League.

Offensive efficiency remains a significant challenge, with American averaging 55.6 points per game while allowing opponents 66.7 points. The 11.1-point average scoring deficit reflects the defensive pressures facing the Eagles throughout their winter schedule. Despite the difficult season record, the program's foundation at a major research university in the nation's capital positions it within a strong academic athletic context. Killion's coaching staff navigates Patriot League competition where consistent offensive production and defensive stops will determine future competitive trajectory.
