The 2018–19 UMBC Retrievers women's basketball team represents the University of Maryland, Baltimore County during the 2018–19 NCAA Division I women's basketball season.

On February 22, 2019, Stern, who had been on administrative leave since December 13, 2018, announced his resignation from UMBC. Assistant coach Carlee Cassidy-Dewey served as interim head coach during Stern's initial leave, and continued in that role following his resignation.[1]
