Everybody knows how it goes, ladies always go first. The Charlotte Women’s basketball team begin the 2016-2017 season against the Wisconsin Badgers in the first game of the Friday doubleheader.
Coming off a 19-12 season, the 49ers return much of their core. Preseason polls have Charlotte finishing fourth in the Conference USA, exactly where they finished last season. But these 49ers are looking to improve and grab their first 20 win season since 2012.
The women’s team already has game experience this season, dismantling Pfeiffer 94-25 in an exhibition game last week. Now games begin to count toward the record.
