For the second time this month a Dartmouth women’s basketball alumna has answered the call to return home to Hanover. Koren Schram ’09, Big Green basketball player extraordinaire, has left her professional European playing career to become our Director of Basketball Operations.
Koren is a competitor and a winner (won three Ivy titles and was first team All-Ivy twice!). She knows Dartmouth and what it takes to win. She is enthusiastic, hardworking and quite the character. It is no surprise to anyone who knows Koren that a volcano erupted while she was in Iceland. So watch out Hanover ... she's baaaack.
I am so excited to have two of our basketball family, Erin Rewalt and Koren Schram return to Dartmouth. I can’t wait for the season
Until next time,
Coach Wielgus

Offically a ’79er
Hi all! Hope everyone is having a great summer. My assistant coaches and I have officially hit the recruiting trail and will be spending the month of July searching for the next generation of Dartmouth women's basketball players. Hope to see you along the way.
A wonderful and unexpected thing happened to me the other day. I received a phone call from Jim Wasz President of the Dartmouth Class of 1979. I was sure that Jim was going to give me a heads up on a talented student-athlete from his neighborhood. Instead Jim told me his class would like to adopt me!!! It is a Dartmouth tradition that any class can "adopt" a member of the College community (professor, coach, staff, administration, etc.) that has served the College faithfully but is not an alum his/herself. For a moment, albeit brief moment, I was speechless. Then I enthusiastically accepted my adoption.
I was beyond surprised and humbled by the generosity of this great class. I am now an adopted member of the Class of 1979 ... a ’79er. Thank you, thank you, thank you to my new classmates for this distinct honor.

P.S. I just got my first Alumni newsletter!

SHE’S BACK!
After a harrowing round of hard fought negotiations between my agent and Erin Rewalt's agent an agreement was finally reach. Erin is BACK!!!
That 6’1 defensive-minded, All-Ivy forward has traveled the halls of Tuck, the corporate labyrinth of GE, and the sidelines of William and Mary on a journey that has landed her back home at Dartmouth.
Erin Rewalt ’99 Tuck’04 has returned to Dartmouth as an Assistant Coach. She is a whirlwind of work and fun. She is competent, quick-witted and grounded with a positive ”can do” attitude. Above all she loves the game and this very special program.
Personally, I am delighted to welcome her home. But I know Erin well and I am fastening my seat belt this adventure just picked up speed.
