The Falcons went (9-3, 4-1) in 2023, falling to Frostburg State in the MEC Championship before having their season ended at the NCATA National Championships.

Curti was a four-time NCATA All-American in her college days. 

The Falcons return NCATA All-American and All-MEC selection Katey Koehl as well as All-MEC honorees Izaria McWhorter-Martin and Taylor Openlander. Fairmont State received two first-place votes in the MEC Preseason Poll and eventually landed at No. 2 behind the preseason favorite Frostburg State.
