Season tickets for the 2017-18 women's basketball schedule are now on sale.

The Flames will open the season on November 2 with an exhibition game against Governor's State, followed by the regular season opener against Bethel on November 10.  In all, UIC will host 17 home games at the UIC Pavilion and one contest at the Flames Athletic Center.

Fans will have plenty of chances to see the team in action early in the season, as five home games are set for the month of November.  After the opener, first-time opponents Jackson State and Santa Clara will visit Chicago on the 16th and 25th, respectively.  The Flames will renew a regional rivalry with Indiana State on the last day of the month.

Home games resume December 6, against Indiana Northwest, and December 8, versus Eastern Michigan.  The Flames will host Evansville on December 16 at the Flames Athletic Center.  Entry to that contest is included in the season ticket package.  The homestand will conclude on the 18th against another first-time foe, North Texas.

Horizon League play will begin when IUPUI returns to the Windy City for the second straight year.  The December 30 contest will be the Jaguars' first competition as Horizon League members.  As a WNIT participant, they are also the first of four teams on the Flames' home schedule who advanced to postseason play in 2017.

In January, the Flames will host three league rivals in a five day span.  Oakland and Detroit Mercy will pay UIC a visit on the 11th and 13th respectively, and then Milwaukee will journey south for a Martin Luther King, Jr. Day matinee on Monday, January 15.

Five of UIC's last seven games of the season will be at home during a busy February.  Cleveland State and Youngstown State will visit on the 8th and 10th.  Later in the month, defending Horizon League champion Green Bay invades UIC Pavilion on the 19th.  Northern Kentucky will be in town on the 23rd, and on the 25th, Wright State will be the opponent for Senior Day.
