The Pitt-Johnstown women's basketball team, under third-year Head coach D'wan Shackleford-Vickroy, has been picked to finish seventh in the 2026-27 PSAC Western Division Preseason Coaches Poll when it was released on Thursday.

The Mountain Cats must replace four seniors from last year's squad and will look to forwards Camille Dominick and Sophia Ott, sophomores Angel Ezirim, Aubree Price, and Alyssa Altemus, and  a handful of returning players with experience and talented freshmen to lead this year's team.

On the PSAC Western Division side, 2026-27 national runner-up Indiana (PA) garnered seven of the nine first-place votes and was picked to win the division, while Gannon received the final two first-place votes and was picked second.

East Stroudsburg and Kutztown each got three first-place votes, but The Warriors were chosen to win the PSAC Eastern Division over the Golden Bears.  Millersville also got two first-place votes and was picked to finish third.
