Former Husker Anna DeForge Hired as Milwaukee Asst. Coach.

[Tinpanalley]

Anna has been hired by the Milwaukee Panthers women's basketball program as an assistant coach.  She was a two time WNBA Allstar during her 8 years WNBA career.  She also played several years professionally overseas.  She is regarded as one of the best all-around players in Nebraska history and is in the top ten on several Nebraska Women's Basketball records.  

 

Wonder if she was given any consideration when we had an assistant opening.  Although she appears to have good recruiting credentials based on her professional playing experience, she may not have the relationships built up with high school coaches throughout the US.

Looked at the women's basketball career records.  She graduated in 1998 and she is still number 8 in career scoring, number 7 in career rebounds, number 9 in career assists, number 7 in career steals and tied for number 7 in career 3 point field goals made.  Very impressive career.
