SOUTH FLORIDA BULLS WOMEN'S BASKETBALL
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Established in 1956 and serving 48,732 students across Tampa, the University of South Florida fields a women's basketball program competing in the American Athletic Conference with an 8-5 conference record this season. Coach Michele Woods-Baxter directs a 15-player roster that has posted a 16-11 overall mark, demonstrating particular strength at the Yuengling Center where the Bulls compiled a 13-3 home record. Away from Tampa, South Florida struggles significantly at 3-8 on the road, highlighting a clear split in performance depending on venue.
Offensively, South Florida averages 71.1 points per game while holding opponents to 69.0 points, a margin suggesting balanced defensive execution despite midseason inconsistency. The home dominance—particularly the 13-3 record at the Yuengling Center—provides the program a substantial platform for conference play, though road improvement remains essential for tournament positioning. Woods-Baxter's 15-player rotation offers depth across the conference schedule.
