Women’s Basketball
Cindy Russo
head coach
30th SEASON
In 33 years of women’s basketball at FIU, head coach Cindy Russo has
been the driving force for 29 of them. Over that time, she guided FIU to 22
consecutive winning seasons (1981-2003), and at least 20 victories on 17
occasions. She has led her teams to six NCAA Division I Championship
berths, five postseason Women’s National Invitation Tournaments and two
NCAA Division II Tournaments, in addition to winning eight regular-season
conference titles and seven tournament crowns.
In 2006-07, Russo joined elite company by becoming the 16th women’s
basketball head coach (13th active) to win 600 career games after her
Golden Panthers defeated South Alabama, 70-60, on February 16.
Following the season, Russo received the Babe Didrickson Zaharias Award
from the Sports Society at the 24th annual Women Athletes Reach for the
Stars awards banquet on May 7 in Miami. She comes into the 2008-09
season ranked 11th among active head coaches with 611 career wins and
a 571-262 (.685) record in her 29 years at University Park.
In 2005-06, Russo guided the Golden Panthers back into the postseason.
After advancing to the semifinals of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament
behind the firepower of First Team All-Sun Belt Conference selection
Lasma Jekabsone, FIU received its fifth invitation to the WNIT. The Golden
Panthers hosted their second postseason basketball game, an overtime
victory over the Big East’s Cincinnati, before falling at cross-town rival
Miami in the following round.
In 2001-02, Russo picked up her 500th career victory with a win over
Stephen F. Austin in the Preseason WNIT. After that impressive feat, she
went on to lead the Golden Panthers to their first Sun Belt Conference regular season and tournament crowns and sixth NCAA Division I Tournament
appearance. FIU went on to defeat Creighton, 73-58, in the first round of
the NCAA Tournament.
That season, Russo picked up her eighth Coach of the Year accolade and
first in the Sun Belt. FIU finished the regular season ranked in the Top 25
in both the Associated Press and USA Today polls.
The Golden Panthers began competition in the Sun Belt Conference
in 1998-99 after spending eight years in the Trans America Athletic
Conference. FIU finished 23-7 overall, 9-3 in the conference, and was
ranked in the Top 25 for a third consecutive season. With victories over
Harvard, Washington and Western Kentucky, the Golden Panthers made
a third-straight appearance in the NCAA Tournament -- and their first as
an at-large team.
FIU had its greatest season in the program’s history in 1997-98 with a 29-2
record, advancing to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. With a
59-45 victory over Marquette in the opening round of NCAA play, Russo
earned her 400th victory at FIU.
The women’s basketball program first garnered national attention in 199192, when Russo guided FIU to a 23-10 mark in the Golden Panthers’ first
season in the TAAC. That team earned a berth to the postseason WNIT.
One year later, she had only nine student-athletes on the roster, yet still
managed a 25-6 record. FIU won the TAAC with a perfect 12-0 record and
outscored its conference opponents by 29.6 points per game, while making a second trip to the WNIT. Following that season, the team received
mention in both the Associated Press and USA Today/CNN polls for the
first time in school history.
In 1993-94, Russo led her squad
to a 25-4 record and the program’s
first NCAA Division I Tournament
appearance. The next year the
Golden Panthers continued to
improve. Picked as high as No. 16
in preseason national polls, FIU
finished 27-5, winning an unprecedented fourth-straight TAAC regular
season and tournament championship, and upsetting Old Dominion,
81-76, in the first round of the NCAA
Tournament.

In 1996-97, the Golden Panthers
compiled a 21-9 record despite
major injuries to two players. Russo
guided the Golden Panthers to a
12-4 conference record, winning
both the regular season and tournament titles. On January 23, 1997,
Russo joined an elite group of coaches, as she became only the 29th
Division I coach in NCAA history to earn 400 career victories.
In 1997-98, the Golden Panthers returned to the national spotlight when
they started the season with an 11-0 record. Throughout the year, FIU
defeated five NCAA Tournament teams (Purdue, Michigan, Georgia, Miami
and Louisville). The Golden Panthers, who failed to receive a vote in the
preseason polls, climbed to No. 11 in the AP Poll and No. 12 in the USA
Today/ESPN Coaches’ Poll.
Russo has coached six All-Americans during her tenure and has had seven
players compete professionally: Andrea Nagy (Sacramento Monarchs
– WNBA), Dalma Ivanyi (San Antonio Silver Stars – WNBA), Gergana
Branzova (Detroit Shock -- WNBA), Albena Branzova (New York Liberty
-- WNBA), Gergana Slavtcheva (Phoenix Mercury – WNBA), Jennifer
Bell (Colorado Xplosian -- ABL) and Lynette Richardson (Miami Tropics –
USBL). Two of those players, Nagy and Albena Branzova, were selected
to the TAAC 25th-Anniversary team.
Russo began coaching at her alma mater, Old Dominion, as an assistant,
following a successful collegiate career. She spent two years assisting at
ODU before taking the head coaching position at FIU as a graduate assistant for the 1977-78 season.
The following fall, Russo accepted the position of head coach at Lamar
University in Beaumont, Texas, where she guided the Lady Cardinals to
consecutive 20-11 seasons and AIAW playoff berths. She returned to FIU
in 1980 and quickly turned the program around. In 1982, FIU enjoyed its
first-ever winning season, compiling 27 wins (a 20-win improvement over
the previous year) and capturing a ninth-place finish at the AIAW Nationals.
Afterwards, Russo was selected as Florida’s Coach of the Year.
A native of Portsmouth, Va., Russo received her bachelor’s degree in
heath and physical education from Old Dominion in 1975. She was one
of the first female student-athletes to receive athletic grant-in-aid at ODU,
and garnered honorable mention honors on ODU’s All-Time Lady Monarch
squad, as voted by fans on the university’s athletic website. In 1978, she
earned her master’s degree in physical education from FIU.

Return of the Panthers
FIU returns two starters and a
total of eight letterwinners off of
last year’s team. With the graduation of Ferguson and Asha Neal
and the departure of All-SBC
point guard Iva Ciglar, the Golden Panthers have some huge
shoes to fill. Ferguson led FIU
in scoring each of the past two
seasons and also ranks seventh
on the school’s all-time scoring
list. Ciglar ranks fourth in assists, dishing out 399 in her time
at FIU.
600 Club
FIU head coach Cindy Russo
enters her 32nd season coaching at the collegiate level, 30th
at FIU. Going into the 2008-09
season, she ranked 11th among
active coaches in wins with 611.
Coach Russo became the 16th
coach in NCAA Division I history
to reach the 600 win plateau on
Feb. 16, 2007 with a 70-60 win
over South Alabama. FIU teams
have reached 14 postseason
tournaments under coach
Russo.
United Nations
Much like in the past, this year’s
Women’s Basketball
roster definitely has an
international feel to it. Five of the
13 Golden Panthers come from
outside of the United States.
Two hail from Croatia and one
each from Latvia, Puerto Rico,
and Hungary.
Tough Competition
FIU will take on Auburn, the preseason No. 20 team in the country, on Nov. 30 at FIU Arena. The
Golden Panthers will also take
on Marist and West Virginia, two
other teams that are receiving
votes in the preseason polls. FIU
