Mar 02 | Women's Basketball
PISCATAWAY, N.J. – Rutgers Women's Basketball Head Coach Coquese Washington will not return to lead the program next season, Director of Athletics Keli Zinn announced today. Washington concluded her tenure with a 42-84 overall record and 11-61 mark in Big Ten play over four seasons.
"Rutgers women's basketball has a proud and storied history of success and there is no reason why our program cannot return to its place among the nation's elite," said Zinn. "We have invested in women's basketball in many ways, we compete in the best athletic conference in the country, and we are supported by passionate fans and loyal donors. I am confident we will find the right coach who can elevate this program to where it belongs. I want to thank Coquese for her service to Rutgers and wish her the best."
A national search for a new women's basketball head coach will begin immediately.
