UCF Women's Basketball Slates 2009-10 Season

Today, UCF women's basketball head coach Joi Williams announced her team's 2009-10 schedule.

Williams, in her third year as skipper, is preparing her team for another tough non-conference schedule, which includes exciting home games against Washington, Notre Dame, Florida State, and Alabama.

The 25-game schedule includes nine total non-conference games and 14 home games. Coach Williams is confident that the difficult non-conference games will prepare the Lady Knights for their Conference USA matchups.

Notable starters this year include junior Emma Cannon (Rochester, NY). The 6-foot-2 Cannon averaged 15.5 points and 11.6 rebounds per game in 2008-09, and won C-USA MVP honors. She needs just 122 points to achieve the 1,000-point mark in her career.

UCF Junior Chelsie Wiley (Riviera Beach, FL) will join Cannon as a key player. She was an All-Conference USA performer in 2008-09.

Conference USA home games include Tulane (Jan. 31), Marshall (Feb. 4), East Carolina (Feb. 6), Rice (Feb. 18), and Houston (Feb. 20). The complete basketball schedule is listed below:
