2014-15 Women’s Basketball Schedule | Schedule Infographic
THE FLATS – Seventeen home games and nine games against NCAA Tournament teams from last year highlight the 2014-15 Georgia Tech women’s basketball schedule, which was released by the Atlantic Coast Conference on Tuesday.
The Yellow Jackets will play a total of 30 regular season games and one exhibition game during head coach MaChelle Joseph’s 12th season. The ACC portion of the Yellow Jackets’ schedule includes home-and-home series with national champion runners up Notre Dame and Clemson. Georgia, Florida State, N.C. State, Syracuse and Duke all highlight the Yellow Jackets’ home schedule. The Jackets host both Notre Dame and Syracuse for the first time in school history this season.
“We are looking forward to our ACC schedule,” head coach MaChelle Joseph said. “The ACC is the most competitive women’s basketball conference in the country. We look forward to the upcoming season. We are looking forward to welcoming Louisville into the league and traveling to play them in their inaugural conference game.”
Currently, the Yellow Jackets are scheduled to appear on national and regional television four times. When Georgia Tech travels to North Carolina on Sunday, January 11, the contest will be shown on the ACC Regional Sports Network. Tech’s home game against Florida State on Friday, January 30 will also be televised on the ACC Regional Sports Network. The Jackets will appear on the ACC Regional Sports Network two more times, when they travel to Miami on Sunday, February 15 and when they host Notre Dame on Thursday, February 19.
Two of the Yellow Jackets’ games are scheduled to be shown on ESPN3. Tech fans will be able to watch the Jackets play on ESPN3 when they travel to Notre Dame on Thursday, January 22 and when they host Duke on Thursday, February 26.
During the nonconference portion of its schedule, Georgia Tech hosts in-state rival Georgia at McCamish Pavilion on November 23.

Georgia Tech will be joined by defending national champions Connecticut, Arizona State, College of Charleston, Green Bay, Minnesota, Villanova and Vanderbilt. The Jackets are on the road for the ACC/Big Ten Challenge, traveling to Michigan State on Dec. 4 and host the Georgia Tech Holiday Tournament from Dec. 29-30.
“We are excited to have Notre Dame and Syracuse here on the Flats for the first time in history,” Joseph said. “We look forward to the Georgia Tech community supporting our home games against two of the top ACC programs.”
