MONMOUTH HAWKS WOMEN'S BASKETBALL
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Monmouth Hawks women's basketball competes from West Long Branch, New Jersey, where the university was established in 1933 and currently enrolls 6,167 students. Coach Cait Wetmore directs the program from OceanFirst Bank Center, where the Hawks posted an impressive 9-3 home record this season. The team's 16-8 overall record included a 6-4 Coastal Athletic Association conference finish, with Monmouth outscoring opponents 63.8 to 57.5 points per game—a defensive strength highlighted by holding visitors to under 58 points on average.
Monmouth's roster of 15 players delivered balanced offensive production while maintaining efficiency at home, where the team won 75% of its games. The Hawks' 7-5 road record demonstrates their ability to compete away from OceanFirst Bank Center, a key indicator of tournament readiness heading into conference play. With Wetmore's emphasis on defensive fundamentals evident in the scoring margin, Monmouth positioned itself as a competitive mid-major program within the Coastal Athletic Association's increasingly competitive landscape.
