Tricia Fabbri Honored With WBCA Victory Club Award
HAMDEN,
Conn. - Quinnipiac University women's basketball Head Coach Tricia
Fabbri was honored as one of the recipients of the 2010 RUSSELL
ATHLETIC/WBCA Victory Club Award. The award is presented to members
of the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) who achieved
career wins of 200, 300, 400, 500 or more in increments of 100 this
past season. Coach Fabbri recorded her 200th career victory on Dec.
29, 2009 with an 11-point win, 90-79, against Central Michigan in
the Consolation Game at the Wyndham Miami Holiday
Tournament.
The all-time
winningest coach in program history, Fabbri completed her 15th
season along the Bobcats' sidelines in 2009-10. With two wins in
the final weekend of the regular season against Monmouth and at
Fairleigh Dickinson, Fabbri led Quinnipiac to a berth in the 2010
Northeast Conference Tournament. Making it to the conference
tournament for the 10th straight season, the Bobcats earned a No. 7
seed with a 7-11 NEC record. Despite a late-game push, Quinnipiac
fell to the No. 2 seeded Long Island Blackbirds, 70-63, in the
quarterfinals.
