After 11 successful seasons overseeing the rise of the University of Charleston women’s basketball program head coach Sherry Winn has announced that she will be stepping down from her position to pursue other endeavors.

Coach Winn leaves the Golden Eagles program a legend in her own right as both a player and a coach. Winn accumulated an overall record of 237-100, while in the coaches seat at Charleston which sets her overall 23 year coaching record at an impressive 442-234 for a 65.4 overall winning percentage.

She steps away from coaching at Charleston to pursue her passion for writing as she is in the process of completing her first book, while also delving into life coaching and public speaking. A quote that has long been a descriptive phrase for Coach Winn’s philosophy on the bench is one that she will now follow in pursuit of her own personal goals.
