Nickname

Framingham State University adopted its mascot the ram in 1967, after a school-wide vote on what should represent the school. It came at the same time as the school, which had been all female up until 1964, added its first male athletics team.[5] In one of the logos it shows a ram running down a hill, which represents the 282 foot (86 meter) high Bare Hill, where Framingham State University sits atop.[6] The mascot's name is Sam the Ram.

With the hiring of head coach Walter Paschal in the 2013–14 season from the Fitchburg State Falcons, the Framingham State Rams women's basketball team has seen a lot of success in recent years.[17] In Walter's first year (2013–14), the Rams won a share of the MASCAC regular season title (along with Bridgewater State and Westfield State), to make it the Rams first conference title in program history. However the Rams lost in the MASCAC tournament finals to the Bridgewater State Bears by a final score of 73–66. The Rams did go on a run to the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) DIII New England Semifinals losing to the Endicott College Gulls by a final score of 67–64. However, in the next five years the Rams have made it to either the MASCAC tournament semifinals (2014–15 and 2018–19) or the MASCAC tournament finals (2015–16, 2016–17, and 2017–18) without winning the MASCAC regular season crown.

Finally in the 2019–2020 season the Rams won their first ever outright MASCAC regular season championship with an overall record of 22-6 (.786) and a perfect 12-0 (1.000) in MASCAC conference play. They went on to become MASCAC tournament champions for the first time ever beating the Worcester State Lancers at home by a final score of 66-51 led by MASCAC tournament MVP senior guard Mary Kate O'Day and with a posted attendance of 1,214 people, which represented the biggest home crowd in program history and Logan Gymnasium history.[18] [19] With that win the Rams were awarded with an automatic berth into the 2020 NCAA Division III women's basketball tournament which was the first time in program history that the Rams appeared in the NCAA Division III women's basketball tournament.

On December 3, 2022, the Framingham State women's basketball team upset the Smith Pioneers at home by a final score of 78-74 who was ranked number 6 on the D3hoops.com women's basketball top 25 national poll.[26] This game was notable due to multiple factors. First this was the programs first ever win against a top 25 opponent. Second this game was a rematch of the 2022 NCAA Division III women's basketball tournament first round.[27] Lastly junior center, Flannery O'Connor scored her 1,000th point making her the 14th Ram in program history to score 1,000 points. On December 11, 2022, the Rams appeared in the D3hoops.com women's basketball poll for the first time ever receiving 2 votes in the D3hoops.com women's Top 25, 2022-23 Week 3 poll.[28] Although for the Rams, the 2022–23 season not the best of seasons for the team compared to the prior two seasons. The Rams entered the 2023 MASCAC conference play with a 25-game winning streak against MASCAC opponents dating back to February 21, 2019, however that was snapped when on January 4, 2023, the Bridgewater State Bears (8-4 overall, 0–0 in MASCAC play) beat the Rams (8-2 overall, 0–0 in MASCAC play), 75–58 at home.[29] The Rams finished the 2022–23 season with an overall record of 17-6 (.739) and 9-3 (.750) in MASCAC conference play culminating with a 90–76 loss to the third seeded Westfield State Owls at home in the MASCAC tournament semifinals.[30]

In the 2023–24 season the Rams are scheduled to appear in the 13th annual D3hoops.com Classic at the South Point Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada for the first time ever in program and school history.[31] The Rams are scheduled to play the first game of the 13th annual D3hoops.com Classic with the Westminster College (Missouri) Blue Jays on December 27, 2023, at 9:00 PM EST, and the nationally ranked Trinity University (Texas) Tigers on December 29, 2023, at 3:00 PM EST.

Freshman forward Kellen Dougherty, who scored a contentious goal in the 59th minute, immediately informed the bench and head coach Tucker Reynolds that the goal should not have been given because the ball went through the side netting rather than the goal post. Reynolds told his squad to alert the referees to the mistake, and after some discussion, they decided to uphold the decision, giving the Rams a 1–0 lead. By telling his squad to enable Bridgewater State to score and tie the score at 1 again in the ensuing minute of play, Reynolds attempted to right the injustice.[66]
