Head Coach: Yvonne Kauffman 

Elizabethtown College named Yvonne Kauffman as the school’s eighth women’s basketball coach at the start of the 1970-71 season, a decision that has produced one of the most successful head coaches in the history of Division III women's basketball.

During her tenure, Elizabethtown has registered a staggering 640 wins — 70 percent of the program's victories. On December 8, 2004 she became the second coach in Division III history to amass 600 career wins. Entering the 2008-09 season, she is the third-winningest active coach in Division III.

Kauffman has coached every one of the school's 22 1,000-point scorers and seven All-Americans, and she has posted 15 seasons of 20-plus victories. She has also presided over all 13 of the program's NCAA tournament appearances, both of its NCAA Division III national championships, and all eight of its conference championships.

The current head coach of the women's basketball team as well as an Associate Director of Athletics and Professor of Physical Education at Elizabethtown, she is also a former head coach of the field hockey team from 1967 to 2000 and of the women's tennis squad from 1970 to 1983.

She has accumulated an astounding total of more than 1,000 coaching victories during her 39-year tenure. A 1966 graduate of Bridgewater (Va.) College, she was inducted into that school's athletic Hall of Fame in September 1997.
