DAVIDSON WILDCATS WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

Atlantic 10 ConferenceD1-FCSwinter

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Davidson's women's basketball program operates from John M. Belk Arena on a campus established in 1837, competing in the Atlantic 10 Conference as a Division I-FCS institution. Coach Gayle Fulks directs a 15-player roster that finished the season with a 16-11 overall record, demonstrating marked success at home where the Wildcats posted an 11-3 mark compared to a 5-8 road record. The team's 65.6 points per game offense outpaced opponents by nearly 7 points, limiting foes to 58.7 PPG while maintaining a 7-6 conference record.

The Wildcats' home-court advantage proved decisive in their Atlantic 10 campaign, as Davidson's Belk Arena provided a decisive edge in conference play. Though the road environment presented challenges reflected in the 5-8 away performance, the program's ability to score consistently—averaging 65.6 PPG—provided a foundation for competitive matchups against Atlantic 10 opponents. Fulks' roster construction and defensive approach, holding opponents below 59 points per game, suggests a team built on controlled pace and efficiency rather than high-volume scoring.
