Brittany Young begins her third year at the helm of the women’s basketball team. Her third team features five returning players, which is highlighted by Preseason All-Atlantic Sun Conference selection Shamarre Hale, who was the ASUN Sixth Player of the Year, a Second Team All-Conference selection, and a 2023 ASUN Women’s Basketball Championship All-Tournament Team selection after helping the Govs to the tournament’s semifinals round during their inaugural season in the league.
