Susan Yow HEAD COACH SUSAN YOW In June 2002, Providence College Athletic Director Robert G. Driscoll announced the hiring of Susan Yow as head women's basketball coach by stating, "Susan Yow has coached at the highest levels and has a strong knowledge of women's basketball. We also were attracted to Susan because she has extensive experience coaching and recruiting in an academic setting. We believe she will be the person that can lead Providence College women's basketball in the highly competitive BIG EAST Conference." Yow's hiring came as no surprise in the women's basketball circles as she has become highly recognized as a coach who does not shy away from the challenge of building a program. Yow is the seventh head coach in the program's 29-year existence. Yow brings a wealth of experience to the Providence program. She has 20 years of NCAA Division I coaching experience, having tackled building situations at the University of North Carolina Wilmington (1993-97), Kansas State University (1990-93), Drake University (1986-90), East Tennessee State University (1978-86) and now, Providence College. Her career record stands at 235-323 (.421). Prior to arriving at Providence, she spent four seasons in the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA), serving as the top assistant coach for three seasons with the Cleveland Rockers and one season with the Charlotte Sting. Yow also has extensive experience coaching USA Basketball teams. In 1981, she was an assistant coach for the USA South Team that won a gold medal at the Olympic Sports Festival. In addition, Yow served as the head coach for the South squad that took the gold medal in the 1983 Olympic Sports Festival. Her USA Basketball experience reached its pinnacle when she served as an assistant coach for the US team that won the gold medal in the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, Korea. In her first year at Providence, she has instilled the vision and laid the foundation for a bright future for women's basketball. The Friars compiled a 6-5 non-conference record and a 9-18 overall mark. Yow earned her first win at Providence in the season opener versus Navy (70-62) as part of the Banknorth Classic in Burlington, Vt. on November 22, 2002. Yow took her first BIG EAST Conference victory at Pittsburgh (80-77) on January 11, 2003. Yow comes from a long line of success in the world of collegiate athletics. She is the sister of Hall-of-Famer and longtime North Carolina State Head Coach, Kay Yow, and University of Maryland Athletic Director, Deborah Yow. Coach Yow is a native of Gibsonville, North Carolina and is a 1976 graduate of Elon College. In her junior season at Elon, she captained the team and earned KODAK All-America honors. It marked the inaugural season that a KODAK All-America Team was selected for women's basketball. Prior to her final season of collegiate basketball, she accompanied her sister, Kay, to North Carolina State and played her final season of collegiate basketball for the Wolfpack. In one season at NC State, Yow became the first Wolfpack women's basketball player ever to be named to the KODAK All-America Team, marking the second time Yow earned the honor. She led the team in scoring (19.4 ppg), rebounding (11.9 rpg), field goal percentage (.584) and free throw percentage (.832). Yow also captained the team. On September 25, 2002, Coach Yow was selected to the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) 50th Anniversary Women's Basketball Team. The 51-member team was voted on by a 27-member, blue-ribbon committee that was selected by the league's 50th Anniversary Committee. North Carolina led all league schools with 11 members on the Golden Anniversary team, while Yow's alma mater, North Carolina State, was second with nine honorees. As a member of the Anniversary Team, Yow joins such players as Dawn Staley (Virginia '92), Alana Beard (Duke '02), Sylvia Crawley (North Carolina '94), Marion Jones (North Carolina '97), Chasity Melvin (NC State '98), Georgia Schweitzer (Duke '01) and Deanna Tate (Maryland '89). Yow's teammates on the 50th Anniversary Team all enjoyed stellar collegiate careers, and many are still playing professionally in the WNBA and overseas.
