Florida women’s basketball has gotten off to a promising start to the 2026-27 season, but the Gators are also building toward the future under first-year head coach Tammi Reiss.
With the early signing period underway, ESPN released its latest 2027 women’s basketball recruiting class rankings, and Florida finds itself among the nation’s top programs.

The Gators are at No. 6 in the ESPN rankings (down one from No. 5). They remain in the top 10, thanks to a well-balanced four-player class that has recruits from all over the East Coast.
Reiss has wasted little time making an impact on the recruiting trail, assembling a class featuring two top-50 prospects and four players ranked among ESPN’s top 70.
Leading the group is Bella Owumi, the nation’s No. 26 overall prospect. The athletic wing brings an aggressive offensive approach, utilizing her physicality to get downhill and attack the paint.
Joining her in the backcourt is Anna Moser, the No. 70 overall prospect and a versatile point guard who can play inside and out, while also facilitating the offense.

Florida also strengthened its frontcourt with two highly regarded prospects from the Southeast.
Madeline Mignery, a Florida native ranked No. 48 nationally, and Georgia product Aila Courtenay, ranked No. 61 overall.
