The Stephanie White era begins tonight

We’ve frequently neglected the Vanderbilt Commodores women’s basketball team in the past, and that’s on us, but as a full-service Vanderbilt sports blog we should do better on that front.

David Williams, from all appearances, made not one but two great coaching hires this year when it comes to basketball. New coach Stephanie White won a national title as a player at Purdue, then went into coaching after a five-year playing career in the WNBA. In 2015 and 2016, she was the head coach of the WNBA’s Indiana Fever, compiling a 37-31 regular season record and taking her team to the WNBA Finals in 2015.
