“I could not be more proud of this team and their work this season,” head coach Maja Kovacek said. “This was not a championship team in August when we got to campus, but they have dedicated themselves each day to improving and making each other better.”

The Redbirds earned the No. 1 seed to the MVC Tournament, but lost to No. 2 Drake, 4-3, in the title match.
