Lehigh first sponsored a varsity women's basketball team for the 1974–75 season, just a few years after the university became coed. The team competed in the East Coast Conference from 1982–83 through the 1989–90 season. Muffet McGraw coached the team from 1982 to 1987 before becoming the head coach at Notre Dame. Lehigh is a charter member of the Patriot League, which began play in women's basketball in the fall of 1990. As of the end of the 2017–18 season, the Mountain Hawks have an all-time record of 571–599. They have won four conference championships in their history, including an East Coast Conference title in 1986 and three Patriot League titles in 1997, 2009 and 2010. They have made three NCAA Tournament appearances in program history and have lost in the first round all three times, losing 103–35 to Connecticut in 1997, losing 85–49 to Auburn in 2009, and losing 79–42 to Iowa State in 2010.[3]
The team originally played its home games exclusively inside Grace Hall on Lehigh's main Asa Packer Campus. Upon the opening of Stabler Arena in 1979, Lehigh's women's team began playing select games at Stabler, while still playing a majority of their home games at Grace Hall. The program began playing its full home schedule at Stabler during the 1989–90 season. Through the 2017–18 season, Lehigh has compiled a 255–184 record at Stabler Arena.[3]
In the 2023–24 season the team broke their record for the most points scored in a single game with 106 points scored against La Salle University.[4] This breaks the previous record held by Lehigh when Lehigh defeated Albright College 103–34 on Feb 3, 1977.[5]
On December 7, 2023, in a match against La Salle University Lehigh scored 17 three-pointers which tied the Patriot League record.[6][7]
