BOSTON (AP) -Sylvia Crawley became the head women's basketball coach at Boston College, signing a five-year contract Tuesday.
Crawley led Ohio to a 20-13 record this season, their first 20-win season since 1994-95. Her team also advanced to the Mid-American Conference championship for the first time since 1986. She took over at Ohio in 2006.
Crawley has been an assistant coach at Fordham and her alma mater, North Carolina. She was a member of the Tarheels' 1993-94 national champion team. She has played professionally for Portland and San Antonio in the WNBA, and also in the American Basketball League and in Europe.
Crawley succeeds Cathy Inglese, who resigned April 10 after 15 years as BC's head coach. The Eagles finished 21-12 this season, fifth in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
