Tommies women’s basketball coach Ruth Sinn celebrates 400th career win
It’s the fourth year of D-1 play for the University of St. Thomas women’s basketball program and it’s safe to say that they continue to take steps forward.
Long-time head coach Ruth Sinn finally sealed her 400th career win on Saturday afternoon after weeks of waiting. The Tommies defeated the Denver Pioneers 78-65 Saturday, improving to 10-10 on the season and 2-5 in Summit League play.
Our Darren ‘Doogie’ Wolfson connected with Sinn and junior guard Amber Scalia at practice prior to Saturday’s game.
Sinn was asked, since it was inevitable, what 400-wins mean to her. She also touched on the progress the team is making.
Sinn now owns a career record of 400-152, becoming the first Tommie women’s basketball coach to reach the 400-win milestone.
Scalia, honorable mention all-conference last year, spoke about how much her game has grown this year. She has two consecutive 20+ point performances.
