Wayne State University women's basketball head coach Carrie Lohr, entering her 14th season with the Warriors, has announced a 28-game regular-season schedule for the upcoming school year.

"The 2024-25 GLIAC women's basketball conference will be incredibly talented again this season from top to bottom. I am optimistic that our competitive non-conference schedule vs. multiple in-region opponents will help prepare us for league play," said Lohr.

With the addition of Roosevelt, Wayne State will play 20 conference games and eight non-league games during the 2024-25 season.

WSU commences the regular season with the GLIAC/GMAC Crossover featuring home games against Malone and Ashland on Nov. 8 and Nov. 10. The Pioneers compiled a 17-13 overall record last season, along with a 12-8 mark in GMAC play. The Eagles won both the GMAC regular-season and tournament titles and finished with a 31-2 record. Both losses were to Ferris State.

Following a home midweek match-up with another former GLIAC rival in Northwood University (Nov. 14 at 7 p.m.), the Warriors travel to Hillsdale on Nov. 20. Wayne State wraps up its five-game pre-conference slate with a home game vs. Tiffin on Nov. 23 (at 3 p.m., following the men's contest against the Dragons at 1 p.m.). The Timberwolves were 20-8 last season and tied-for-second in the GMAC with a 16-4 league record. The Chargers won 17 of their 29 games in 2023-24, tying for fourth in the GMAC with a 13-7 conference mark, while TU was 4-24 last season.

WSU begins GLIAC play at home on Dec.5 (Davenport) and Dec.7 (Grand Valley State).
