The team is sponsored by NCAA Division II Conference Commissioners.

Nordick earned All-Region accolades, a first for the senior Golden Eagle women’s basketball player and a first for the program. Nordick finished the season averaging 17.2 points per game and was third in the NSIC in scoring. She also averaged 6.9 rebounds per game. The UMC player ended her career third all-time in scoring with 1,559 career points and first all-time in rebounds with 697.
