Sue Guevara
Sue Guevara (born July 8, 1954)[1] is the head women's basketball coach at Central Michigan University. She previously served as the head women's basketball coach at the University of Michigan. She is Michigan's all time winningest basketball coach in terms of wins (123), and winning percentage (.600). She also owns school records for conference wins (57), and conference winning percentage (.510). Michigan has had only seven postseason appearances in team history, and five of them have come with Guevara at the helm. She coached the Wolverines to a 123-82 record.
She also coached at Auburn University from 2004 to 2007, under Nell Fortner. She is a two time Big Ten coach of the year, having won the honors in both 1998 and 2000. On two occasions, in 2001 and 2002, Michigan achieved a national ranking of 12, the highest ever in school history. From 1986 to 1996, she coached as an assistant at Michigan State University, during which the Spartans went 149-131.
In 2009, she was named as a defendant in a lawsuit brought by Brooke Heike, a former player who lost her scholarship after the 2007-8 season. On May 3, 2010, all of Heike's claims against Coach Guevara and Central Michigan University were dismissed as lacking merit.[2]
