Jimmy Garrity had simple expectations for his first Wofford College women’s basketball team. He didn’t have goals; he just wanted the team to improve over the course of the season.
So far, that has happened.
The Terriers are 12-6 with a 2-1 slate in the Southern Conference. The record is more impressive once one considers that the program hasn’t had a winning record this late in the year since the 2001-02 season when it finished 16-13.
Southern ConferenceThat was the Terriers’ only season above .500 since moving to the NCAA Division I level. They became a full member of the SoCon prior to the 1997-98 season.
Garrity, who was 66-26 in three seasons at Division II Anderson University, including a 24-point win over Clemson last season, succeeded Edgar Farmer.
