West Virginia women’s basketball has momentum going within the program, coming off a second-round appearance in the NCAA Tournament under Mark Kellogg’s first season. The Mountaineers ended up falling to the eventual national runner-ups in Iowa. Kellogg finished 25-8 during his first year at WVU, the most wins ever by a first-year coach at West Virginia. WVU was ranked nine weeks in the Associated Press poll.

There are a lot of changes in Big 12 basketball for the 2024-25 season. The conference officially adds Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado and Utah this summer while losing Oklahoma and Texas to the SEC. Women’s basketball in the Big 12 will continue with an 18-game schedule as the men’s transition into a 20-game slate.

The Mountaineers—who finished at No. 24 in last year’s AP Poll—will see senior guard JJ Quinerly, the reigning Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year and a two-way star who saw her name floated for a number of national awards, return for her final season in Morgantown. They can also bank on junior Jordan Harrison, a sharpshooter who actually picked up more steals than Quinerly last season.
