# 2024–25 Binghamton Bearcats women's basketball team

The 2024–25 Binghamton Bearcats women's basketball team represents Binghamton University during the 2024–25 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Bearcats, led by first-year head coach Mary Grimes, play their home games on Dr. Bai Lee Court in Binghamton University Events Center in Vestal, New York as members of the America East Conference.

## Previous season

The Bearcats finished the 2023–24 season 14–17, 8–8 in America East play to finish in a tie for fourth place. In the America East tournament, they defeated Bryant in the quarterfinals, before falling to top-seeded and eventual tournament champions Maine in the semifinals.
On March 29, 2024, the school announced that they would be parting ways with head coach Bethann Shapiro Ord, ending her six-year tenure at the helm. Nearly a month later, on April 24, the school announced that they would be hiring Le Moyne head coach Mary Grimes as the Bearcats' next head coach.
