  • Cal's Joanne Boyle Honored with 2011 Carol Eckman Award 2010
    Cal's Joanne Boyle Honored with 2011 Carol Eckman Award ATLANTA - Joanne Boyle, head coach of the University of California Golden Bears, is the winner of the 2011 Carol Eckman Award, the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) announced today. The Carol Eckman Award is presented annually to an active WBCA coach who exemplifies Eckman's spirit, integrity and character through sportsmanship, commitment to the student-athlete, honesty, ethical behavior, courage and dedication to purpose. The award is named in honor of the late Carol Eckman, the former West Chester State College coach who is considered the "Mother of the Women's Collegiate Basketball Championship." Eckman organized the first women's basketball championship at West Chester in 1969 and continued to garner recognition and support for the women's game until her death from cancer in 1985. "We are pleased to present Joanne Boyle with the 2011 Carol Eckman Award," said WBCA CEO Beth Bass. "This award recognizes all the wonderful qualities and core values - sportsmanship, honesty and ethical behavior - inherent in educational athletics. Carol Eckman instilled in her players exactly those qualities that we aspire to foster through our Center for Coaching Excellence, which is housed at Columbia University." Boyle is in her sixth season as head coach of the Golden Bears, where she has amassed a 134-62 record. Under Boyle's direction, Cal registered four consecutive NCAA Tournament berths from 2006 through 2009, when it made its first-ever Sweet 16 appearance, and was the 2010 WNIT champion. This year's team is 15-14 heading into the Pac-10 Conference Tournament.

(March 10, 2004) -- The Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) has announced Deirdre Kane as the winner of its Carol Eckman Award. The Carol Eckman Award is presented annually to an active WBCA coach who exemplifies Eckman's spirit, integrity and character through sportsmanship, commitment to the student-athlete, honesty, ethical behavior, courage and dedication to purpose. The award is named in honor of the late Carol Eckman, the former West Chester State College coach who is considered the "Mother of the Women's Collegiate Basketball Championship." Eckman organized the first women's basketball championship at West Chester in 1969 and continued to garner recognition and support for the women's game until her death from cancer in 1985. "It's quite amazing to see the legacy of Coach Eckman's spirit live on through one of her successors," said WBCA CEO, Beth Bass. "Deirdre has done an outstanding job maintaining the integrity of the West Chester women's basketball program." Kane is the head women's basketball coach at West Chester University. She has won over 200 games, more than any women's basketball coach in the school's history. Last season, she led the team to the program's first PSAC Championship game and their first NCAA Division II Tournament win.
