Arizona State didn’t have to go far to find its next women’s basketball coach, hiring Molly Miller away from Grand Canyon, multiple outlets reported.
The Sun Devils had yet to make the news official as of Saturday morning.
Miller led Grand Canyon to its first NCAA Tournament. The 13th-seeded Lopes lost their first-round game to fourth-seeded Baylor, 73-60, on Friday in Waco, Texas.
The defeat shattered the 30-game winning streak for Grand Canyon, which finished the season 32-3.
Miller, 38, had a 117-38 at Grand Canyon since taking over the program before the 2020-21 season. She began her coaching career at her alma mater, Division II Drury, were her teams were 180-17 over six seasons.
Earlier this month, Arizona State fired coach Natasha Adair, who was 29-62 over three seasons.
