FIU Women’s Basketball Team Accepts Invitation to 2023 WBI

Miami, Fla.- The 2022-23 season will continue for the FIU women's basketball team this Friday when the Panthers take on ETSU in the first round of the Women's Basketball Invitational in Lexington, Kentucky.

It marks the second postseason berth in just three seasons as head coach for Jesyka Burks-Wiley and FIU. The Panthers went 2-1 in the 2021 WBI, defeating Abilene Christian and Manhattan to win the consolation tournament title two seasons ago.

FIU (12-18) will take on ETSU (23-9) out of the Southern Conference in the first game of the tournament and with a win would move on to play the winner of New Mexico State and Illinois-Chicago.
