50 Years of Women’s Basketball

Fifty years ago, Randolph-Macon College tipped off a new era—introducing women’s basketball as its first intercollegiate sport for women. Since then, generations of Yellow Jackets have left their mark on the court and beyond, building a tradition of excellence, resilience, and community.

As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of women’s basketball at RMC, we invite you to take part in a yearlong celebration honoring the players, coaches, and supporters who helped shape the program. From special events and storytelling to a campaign supporting the future of the game, there’s never been a better time to reconnect and rally around this historic milestone. 

A Legacy Time Can’t Touch

We invite you to join us in celebrating this milestone by coming together, remembering our history, and blazing a path for another 50 years!

Save the Date for Back to the Hive

Join us for a special reunion weekend January 16–17, 2026.

More than our typical “Back to the Hive” celebration, this time is a homecoming. Join us to celebrate our five decades of competition, growth, and sisterhood.
