Led by Katrina Hable (Camillus, NY) and Lauren Brady (Acton, MA), the 2000 Orangewomen finished the season with a 12-4 record. After losing its first three games to ranked opponents (Virginia, Maryland and Georgetown), Syracuse went on to post the longest winning streak in program history with 11 consecutive victories. The season was ended with an 11-10 loss to Georgetown in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
