Previous season
The Governors finished the 2021–22 season 12–17, 8–10 in OVC play to finish in a tie for fifth place. As the No. 6 seed in the OVC tournament, they lost to Tennessee Tech in the first round.[3]

This was also meant to be their last season in the Dunn Center,[5] but the opening of their future home, F&M Bank Arena, was delayed until July 2023.[6]
