Dear Alumni, Family and Friends,
What a year we had! We are thrilled about the recent success and the future of the women’s basketball program here at UMass. Last season, the women’s basketball team broke a program record for most wins in school history with 26 wins. Throughout the record breaking season, the team claimed the school’s first ever Atlantic 10 Championship, and for the first time in 24 years, earned a trip to the NCAA tournament. The Flagship is Rising!
Our student-athletes have also had success in the classroom and are making an impact in the Amherst community. In Spring 2022, the team achieved a 3.25 cumulative grade point average.
We are continuing to build upon a program you can be proud of, but we need your help! Support from alumni, family and friends is invaluable to enhancing the student-athlete experience and excelling in the classroom and on the court. Funds from the Fastbreak Club will allow us to have the latest technology for recruiting and scouting, as well as for tracking our players’ wellness with GPS heart rate monitors. We will be able to provide nutritional support for before and after practice and provide opportunities for professional development to better prepare our young women for life after UMass.
All these aspects are necessary to run a program that can continue to compete for A-10 championships and NCAA tournament bids.
We appreciate your generosity and look forward to giving back to you as well. We would love to have you as a member of the Fastbreak Club and your continued support as we continue to take this program to new heights.
Becoming part of something special,
Tory Verdi
Head Women's Basketball Coach University of Massachusetts2022-23 Fastbreak Club
