† 2024 Pac-12 tournament winner Rankings from AP Poll |
The 2023–24 USC Trojans women's basketball team represented the University of Southern California during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Trojans played their home games at the Galen Center and were members of the Pac-12 Conference. This was the last year the team played in the Pac-12 as they are slated to join the Big Ten Conference. The squad was led by third-year head coach Lindsay Gottlieb. The Trojans finished as 2024 Pac-12 Conference women's basketball tournament champions and made it to the Elite 8. They finished the season with a No. 5 AP ranking and a No. 6 ranking in the Coaches' poll.
USC started off ranked No. 21 in the preseason rankings in both the AP and Coaches Polls. For the final regular season AP poll, they finished in 5th. Although they were picked to finished 6th by the last-ever Pac-12 coaches poll, the team finished tied for second. They earned the 2-seed in the Pac-12 tournament as they held the second tiebreaker over UCLA. In the 2024 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament, they earned a 1-seed for the first time since 1986.
Previous season
[edit]The Women of Troy finished the regular Pac-12 season tied for 4th with UCLA and Arizona. Because both of those teams held tiebreakers over USC, the Trojans earned the 6th seed in the 2023 Pac-12 Conference women's basketball tournament.

Last year's team spent much of the season receiving votes in both polls and made the top 25 once in the AP Poll. In the last AP Poll, they received 3 votes while they no longer received any votes in the final two coaches' polls.[2]
Offseason changes
[edit]The Women of Troy brought in 2 first-years out of high school, 1 transfer student, and 4 graduate students. 1 student who red-shirted last year is also expected to play this coming season. 6 players from the previous year graduated while 1 transferred and 1 retired.
Regarding coaching staff, Women of Troy alumna Courtney Jaco, who previously served as Director of Player Development and who as a player won the 2014 Pac-12 tournament to qualify for the NCAA tournament, was promoted to Assistant Coach.[3] Wilnett Crockett also joined the coaching staff as an Assistant Coach and Recruiting Coordinator.
