Message: [QUOTE="cabbie191, post: 2945681, member: 417"] Stone was a terrific Division 3 coach at Univ of Wisconsin - Eau Claire, taking the team to the national championship near the end of her tenure. I worked about six blocks from their basketball arena - she was very popular in the community and generated a lot of support for her program. She had a short stint at a Division 1 school whose name I am not recalling before being hired as the coach at Wisconsin. She inherited a losing program and in a couple of years had them winning. But they never got to the top of the Big Ten and Barry Alvarez let her go, after which the team slipped and became mired near the bottom of the league. [/QUOTE]
