History
The Owls began play in 1982. They played in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics and Georgia Intercollegiate Athletics Conference from 1982-1994. In their time in the NAIA, they made the NAIA playoffs seven times while compiling an all-time record of 204-143. They transitioned from NAIA to Division II from 1992-1994. In their time in Division II, they made the Elite Eight in 1997 and 1999 along with an appearance in the Second Round in 2000, with an all-time record of 222-98. They were formerly a member of the Peach Belt Conference from 1994 to 2005. They joined Division I in 2005. As of the end of the 2015-16 season, they have an all-time record of 550-442, with an record of 123-201 in Division I play. [4]
In 2014-15, the Owls had their most wins in their Division I program history, at 17.[5] The Owls had a strong season behind their senior point guard, Kristina Wells.[6] Thus, the Owls are hoping to transfer this good momentum into their current season.
