Abstract

"Oakland head women's basketball coach Beckie Francis stepped down from her position, effective Oct. 31, on the advice of personal physicians and specialists and is on indefinite medical leave from the university. Francis suffers from ulcerative colitis, which physicians advise has been made worse by the rigors of collegiate coaching. Eileen Shea-Hilliard, assistant women's basketball coach at the University of Michigan, was named the new head women's basketball coach."
