KEEP IT ROLLING 2009-10: Red Foxes Win ‘10 MAAC Championship The 2009-10 season was Brian Giorgis’ eighth as head coach of the Marist women’s basketball program. While it marked the final season for the Red Foxes’ all-time leading scorer, a young core was establishing itself to continue the program’s championship tradition. Rachele Fitz, who reached 1,000 points as a sophomore and broke the program’s all- time scoring record as a junior, was the lone senior in a starting lineup that was actually younger than the previous year’s version that included three sophomores. Now a junior, Erica Allenspach had established herself as an All-MAAC performer who shined in big games. As a sophomore, Corielle Yarde took a giant step forward and became one of the MAAC’s top players. Fellow sophomore Kristine Best joined the opening five at point guard. At center, 6-foot-4 Kate Oliver arrived from Australia and was the Red Foxes’ leader in blocked shots as a freshman.
