^ Rainbow Wahine Showdown (Honolulu, Hawaii) # FGCU Hilton Garden Inn Classic * ASUN Conference game
TRENDING @FGCU_WBB - Redshirt junior guard Keri Jewett-Giles (18.3 PPG) had a big weekend, which resulted in ASUN player and newcomer of the week recognition for the second consecutive week. - Head coach Karl Smesko, with a staff comprised of all former FGCU players, won his 500th career game on Sunday against American. He entered this year with a 496-114 record (.813), which ranked him as the 3rd winningest active D-I head coach behind Geno Auriemma (1,027-136, .883) and Kim Mulkey (539-98, .846). He passed Tara VanDerveer (1,036-242, .811) last year to become the 5th-winningest of all-time and ranks among the top 20 winningest coaches all-time across all divisions. - Over the past four seasons, Smesko guided FGCU to 121 wins, which is the most among all mid-majors and seventh-most among any Division-I program – behind UConn (148), Notre Dame (137), Baylor (135), South Carolina (129), Mississippi State (126) and Maryland (123). On top of that, the program is one of only six Division-I teams with three 30-win seasons during that stretch – joining UConn, Baylor, Notre Dame, Maryland and South Carolina. - Smesko has produced a level of sustained success matched by few others as he has guided the Eagles to eight-straight 25-win seasons and 14-straight 20-win seasons. FGCU is also one of only four schools in the nation to have both women’s and men’s basketball teams win at least 20 games in six-straight seasons – joining Duke, Louisville and Saint Mary’s.
Head coach Karl Smesko, center, is congratulated by his coaching staff after winning his 500th career game on Sunday.
