Aki Hill is one of the most accomplished intercollegiate women’s basketball coaches in the country.
She was named the Beavers’ head coach in 1978 at the recommendations of some of the sport’s most influential people during that era, including John Wooden, Pete Newell and former Portland Trail Blazers’ executive Stu Inman.
Hill guided the Beavers into the modern era of the Pac-12 Conference and would conclude a 17-year OSU career with a school-record 274 victories and eight postseason tournament appearances. Prior to Hill’s arrival, OSU sponsored an intercollegiate women’s basketball program for just the two previous years winning a combined 15 games – OSU won 15 games in Hill’s first season and 20-plus contests six times.
