BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.—Now official, head coach Terri Williams and the ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï-Webb women’s basketball team have released the upcoming 2025-’26 schedule, with 29 games in total, including 13 inside Paul Porter Arena.

The Terri Williams era begins not far from campus, as the Runnin’ Bulldogs travel to Charlotte to take on Queens on the opening night of the season, Nov. 3. “Our team is working hard every day and shaping into the pressing, up-tempo team we are putting together,â€� she affirmed. “This style of play is new for all 13 players, but they are buying into what it takes to build a Team of Excellence! I thank God for this wonderful opportunity to be at ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï-Webb University.â€�

Williams continued, “I have truly enjoyed getting to know the ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï-Webb staff and faculty and appreciate my coaching colleagues embracing me into the Runnin’ Bulldog family,â€� Williams affirmed. “My biggest focus the last couple of months has been on my team, recruiting—and finding a church home, which I have at Mt. Calvary Baptist Church. Dr. M. Lamont Littlejohn Jr. (pastor) and his wife, Nikki, have welcomed me with open arms.â€� Littlejohn also serves as chair of the GWU Board of Trustees.

After the opener in Charlotte, the Runnin’ Bulldogs have three more road games that follow in early November, as ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï-Webb travels to West Georgia on Nov. 8, Mercer on Nov. 10, and ACC foe, Virginia Tech on Nov. 13.

Finally, the Dawgs return to Boiling Springs on Nov. 16, taking on Hampton in the 2025-’26 home opener. ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï-Webb will also host UNC-Wilmington in a midweek game, scheduled for Nov. 19. GWU then travels south to Coastal Carolina, where the Runnin’ Bulldogs will take part in the Coastal Carolina Thanksgiving Tournament, between Nov. 28 and 30. The Runnin’ Bulldogs will face Jackson State on Nov. 29 and Coastal Carolina on Nov. 30, with both games taking place in Conway, S.C.

GWU comes back home for three straight home games to begin December, welcoming App State to Paul Porter Arena on Dec. 1, Wofford on Dec. 4, and Western Carolina for the return game of a home-and-home on Dec. 13.

ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï-Webb ends December with a couple familiar non-conference opponents from last season, visiting ETSU on Dec. 18 and another ACC foe in Wake Forest on Dec. 22. After the holiday break, ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï-Webb returns to action and begins Big South play at Winthrop on Dec. 31.
