Robin Pingeton Takes Over Wisconsin Women's Basketball

Robin Pingeton has been appointed as the new head coach for Wisconsin's women's basketball team, succeeding Marisa Moseley who resigned after four seasons. Pingeton previously coached Missouri for 15 years, with a record of 250-218, and led her teams to four consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances from 2016-19. Her tenure at Missouri ended with a 14-18 season, prompting her resignation. Wisconsin's program, which has not seen an NCAA Tournament since 2010, hopes to benefit from Pingeton's extensive experience, which also includes stints at Illinois State and St. Ambrose, amassing 585 career wins. Pingeton expressed enthusiasm for the opportunity to rebuild Wisconsin's program and align with the university's values. The hire aligns with Wisconsin's focus on experienced leadership to revitalize its struggling basketball team.
