Former Boston University women[apos]s basketball standout Caroline Stewart ([apos]12) has joined the BU women[apos]s basketball staff as the team[apos]s video coordinator for the 2013-14 season.
'We are excited for the return of Caroline Stewart!' said Greenberg. 'Her passion for the game and commitment to BU Basketball is simply terrific and we are very fortunate that she will be back on Comm Ave.'
As the video coordinator, Stewart is responsible for organizing the film exchange program, editing and breaking down game and practice film and assisting with administrative and day-to-day duties.
'I am so excited to be back at BU as a part of the women[apos]s basketball staff,' said Stewart. 'To be involved with such a dedicated program is an honor as an alum and I could not be more thankful for the opportunity. This year will be an amazing learning experience for me as I look forward to working with the coaches throughout the season. It truly is great to be back.'
The three-time team captain for the Terriers played in 122 games during her four-year career (2008-12) and helped the Terriers capture two conference regular-season titles and earn three trips to the Women[apos]s National Invitation Tournament (WNIT). Stewart concluded her playing career as a Terrier with 737 points and 791 rebounds, which ranks fourth all-time in school history.
The Topsfield, Mass., native was also the 2012 recipient of BU[apos]s John B. Simpson Award, which is given annually to both a male and female student-athlete who has demonstrated enthusiasm and leadership.
Stewart continued her playing career during the 2012-13 season when she signed a Victory Scholarship contract with the Sports Changes Life program that sent her to Northern Ireland. She enrolled in the University of Ulster to earn her master[apos]s degree in business while playing for the school[apos]s basketball team. Additionally, she also suited up for the Belfast Rockets, a professional team in the Irish Women[apos]s SuperLeague but returned to Boston last spring due to an injury.
