NDRef is correct. The women's rule is that it is an indirect technical foul for any team member to dunk or attempt to dunk a dead ball during the game (10-3-12, Women). So pre-game dunking seems to be ok.

It is, however, still an indirect technical foul for the women if they grasp either basket during the officials' jurisdiction (which, of course, includes warm-ups if the officials are present) unless trying to avoid injury (10-3-11). So while the women are allowed to dunk in warm-ups, they're still not allowed to hang or swing from the rim to showboat.

In Juulie's sitch, the girls were "grabbing the rim". If it were a real game, even under NCAA rules, they should get whacked.
