For women’s basketball returners, the past two weeks were filled with anticipation.
The team found out April 3 then-head coach Carolyn Kieger left to take a Penn State job. The team met its new head coach Megan Duffy for the first time April 10.
“Changes happen,” freshman forward Chloe Marotta said. “This happens in college basketball all the time. … We all stuck together, all the returners and also the incoming freshmen.”
When the returning players first found out about Kieger’s departure, junior guard Isabelle Spingola said they were shocked.
“This week has been pretty long, but we’re just excited to see what the future holds for us,” Spingola said.
