LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) Women's basketball coach Connie Yori has resigned after 14 seasons at Nebraska.
In a statement released by the school Tuesday, Yori said only that she had reached her decision following ''a difficult time in my life'' and thanked athletic director Shawn Eichorst for his support and leadership. Eichorst thanked Yori and said the search for replacement would begin immediately.
Yori has a 475-306 record over 26 seasons as a head coach. She helped Nebraska to some of its most successful seasons ever, and finishes with a 280-166 record over 14 years. This season, the Huskers finished 18-13 and just 9-9 in the Big Ten. They were ousted in the first round of the WNIT postseason tournament by Northern Iowa.
