Austin Peay Governors Womens Basketball

The Austin Peay Governors are the intercollegiate athletic teams of Austin Peay State University, located in Clarksville, Tennessee, United States. The Governors athletic program is a member of the NCAA Division I Atlantic Sun Conference (ASUN) for all sports except football, in which it competes in the United Athletic Conference (UAC). The latter conference started play in the 2023 season as a football-only merger between two conferences in the second tier of Division I football, the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS)—the ASUN and the Western Athletic Conference. Before the 2022–23 school year, the Governors were members of another FCS league, the Ohio Valley Conference (OVC). Beginning July 1, 2026, Austin Peay will leave the Atlantic Sun Conference and become a full member of the United Athletic Conference, coinciding with the rebranding of the Western Athletic Conference under the UAC name.
