† 2024 Pac-12 tournament winner Rankings from AP Poll |
The 2023–24 Stanford Cardinal women's basketball team represented Stanford University during the 2023–24 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Cardinal were led by 38th-year head coach Tara VanDerveer, and played their home games at Maples Pavilion as members of the Pac-12 Conference. They finished the season at 30–6, 15–3 in Pac-12 play to win the regular season championship. As a No. 1 seed in the Pac-12 Tournament, they defeated California in the quarterfinals and Oregon State in the semifinals before losing to USC in the championship. They received an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament as a No. 2 seed in the Portland regional 4 bracket where they defeated Norfolk State and Iowa State in the first and second rounds before losing to NC State in the Sweet Sixteen.
After the season's conclusion, VanDerveer announced her retirement, making this her 38th and final season as Stanford head coach. This was also the team's final season in the Pac-12, as they will move to the Atlantic Coast Conference beginning on August 1, 2024.
