The Columbia Lions women's basketball team is the intercollegiate women's basketball program representing Columbia University.

History[]

The Lions have a 303–610 record since beginning play in 1984 after Columbia went co-ed in 1983. They joined the Ivy League in women's basketball in 1986 after two seasons in Division III play. The women's teams used to be known as the Barnard Bears, named for the affiliated women's college of the same name. For their first 23 seasons, they never finished higher than fourth in the eight team conference.[3]
