Syracuse Women's Basketball Roster Features Depth and Experience

SU boasts a talented and experienced roster for the 2023-24 season.

The Syracuse Orange women’s basketball team is poised for a successful 2023-24 season with a roster that features a blend of experience and talent.

The Orange return three starters from last year’s team that finished 22-10 overall and 11-7 in the ACC, including All-ACC Second Team selection Amaya Finklea-Guity.

Key Returners:

  • F Amaya Finklea-Guity (14.8 ppg, 9.7 rpg)
  • G Kiara Lewis (11.3 ppg, 4.6 apg)
  • F Asia Strong (9.6 ppg, 7.4 rpg)
  • Syracuse Adds Talented Newcomers to the Roster

    In addition to their returning players, the Orange have added several talented newcomers to the roster, including transfers Teisha Hyman from Duke and Chrislyn Carr from Rutgers.

    Hyman, a 6-foot-2 forward, was a key contributor for Duke last season, averaging 8.1 points and 6.1 rebounds per game. Carr, a 5-foot-11 guard, brings experience and leadership to the backcourt after starting 28 games for Rutgers last season.

    Key Newcomers:

  • F Teisha Hyman (8.1 ppg, 6.1 rpg)
  • G Chrislyn Carr (5.4 ppg, 2.7 apg)
  • F Kamilla Cardoso (McDonald's All-American)
  • Orange Boast Depth and Versatility

    The Orange have a deep and versatile roster that should allow them to compete in the ACC and make a run in the NCAA Tournament.

    With a talented frontcourt led by Finklea-Guity, Strong, and Hyman, and an experienced backcourt featuring Lewis and Carr, Syracuse has a good mix of size, athleticism, and skill.

    The Orange also have several players who can contribute off the bench, including 6-foot-5 center Kyra Wood and sharpshooter Ava Irvin.

    With a talented roster and experienced coaching staff led by Felisha Legette-Jack, the Syracuse Orange women’s basketball team is poised for a successful 2023-24 season.
