The expectations placed on her when she arrived in College Park in April 2002 were great. Confronted with reviving a once-prominent women’s basketball program, the young and vibrant coach took on the challenge with open arms and has not disappointed. Since her first season at the helm when the team won just 10 games, Frese has guided Maryland to a National Championship in 2006, four winning seasons, three-straight 20-win seasons and four-consecutive trips to the NCAA Tournament. In 2006-07, Maryland also received its first-ever No. 1 preseason national ranking, remaining in the top spot in the polls for 10-consecutive weeks. “This has been an incredible journey and winning the national championship in 2006 was just the begin- ning,” said Frese. “My coaching staff and I had the belief we could win a national championship here at Maryland. With all the administrative support, the first-class facilities – we knew we could build something great. We did not set any timetables, but what we have achieved so far … it’s beyond expectations.” Athletics Director Deborah A. Yow courted the 2002 Associated Press National Coach of the Year because of Frese’s reputation for making amazing turnarounds and her relentless work ethic with recruiting.
