During the 2021-22 season, Dickerson Davis helped lead the Demon Deacons to their second postseason appearance in her two seasons on staff. She coached the ACC's leading scorer as guard Jewel Spear finished the year with 18.3 points per game. Spear, a First Team All-ACC selection, is the first sophomore leading scorer in the conference since the 2011-12 season and just the third in the last 20 years. Additionally, her 90 three pointers ranked second in the ACC and is the second most in single-season program history.
Spear had one of the greatest performances in program history against ETSU on Dec. 13, netting 40 points, the second best mark in school history while also breaking the program record with 10 three-point makes.
Additionally, freshman Elise Williams became one of the brighter young guards in the ACC, leading the team with 87 assists and 51 steals finishing second on the team in scoring (9.5 PPG) and three-point makes (28).
In her first season in Winston-Salem, Dickerson Davis helped lead the Demon Deacons to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in 31 years, earning a No. 9 seed in the tournament. The Deacs reached the ACC Tournament quarterfinals for the second consecutive season, marking the first time the Demon Deacons have accomplished this feat in back-to-back seasons since 2012 and 2013. In the second round, the Deacs eliminated North Carolina from the ACC Tournament for the second consecutive season with an 82-71 victory.
During the first season of the NCAA using the NET rankings, the program recorded six victories over top-50 NET ranked teams while also having the No. 2 average opponent NET ranking in the nation.
Additionally, a program record four student-athletes were named to Academic All-ACC Team: Jewel Spear earned her first Academic All-ACC honors this season while Ivana Raca, Gina Conti and Christina Morra were honored for the second time in their career.
Three Demon Deacons earned All-ACC honors with Ivana Raca named to the First Team, Gina Conti to the Second Team and Jewel Spear to the All-Freshman Team.

Under the tutelage of Dickerson Davis, White broke the Georgetown all-time assist record, and ended her career as the second all-time leading scorer in Hoyas’ history with 2,071 points.
