Since beginning in 1962, the 49ers have an all-time record (as of the end of the 2015–16 season) of 898–521.

They played in the AIAW Women's Basketball Tournament (the predecessor to the NCAA Tournament) in 1972, 1973, 1976, 1979, 1980, and 1981. They were champion of the Western Collegiate Athletic Association for 1982–1985. They won the Pacific Coast Athletic Association (now known as the Big West Conference) title from 1987–89.
