The 2013–14 Gonzaga Bulldogs women's basketball team represented Gonzaga University in the 2013–14 college basketball season. The Bulldogs (also informally referred to as the "Zags"), members of the West Coast Conference, were led by head coach Kelly Graves, in his 14th, and final season at the school. The Zags played most of their home games at the McCarthey Athletic Center on the university campus in Spokane, Washington. The Zags would win both the regular and tournament season titles and finish ranked 18th in the AP Poll with a 29–5 record. The Zags were upset in the 1st Round of the NCAA Tournament to end their season. After the season, Kelly Graves would be hired as the new head coach at Oregon, and Lisa Fortier would be named the new Zags head coach.
