A new era of UB Women’s Hoops officially begins this evening as the Bulls take on Maryland Eastern Shore (0-2, 0-0 MEAC) at 6:00 p.m.
The Hawks are led by head coach Fred Batchelor, who has ties to Buffalo. He’s a former UB Men’s Basketball assistant and spent two seasons as the head coach of Buffalo State’s Women’s Basketball team. In his second year there, he compiled a 25-4 record for the Bengals. Batchelor enters his fifteenth season a year ago. He’s only posted three campaigns with a record over .500, which isn’t uncommon for a middling program in the MEAC.
