Here’s the latest I can share based on public Coast Guard Bears women’s basketball coverage:

Coast Guard Bears clinched a playoff berth by winning at Mount Holyoke 70-49 on February 21, 2026, finishing the regular season 13-12 overall and 5-6 in the NEWMAC. Dorothy Stotts led the team with 24 points in that finale, and the Bears earned the 7 seed to open the NEWMAC Tournament on the road at Babson College on February 25, 2026.

Their prior game summaries show a tight late-season push, including a February 13 loss at home to MIT and an upcoming February 18 home date vs Wheaton before the playoff tilt. Olivia Wright contributed a team-high 10 points in that low-scoring February 14 setback, highlighting the Bears’ continued scoring balance down the stretch.

For context, the Bears’ season in the NEWMAC had them jockeying in the middle of the standings, with multiple close games and a mix of road and home contests against conference opponents. [Sources: February 21 playoff-clinching recap; February 13 recap]
