Jun 25, 2009 | General, Softball
Standout player and 12-year assistant coach Michala Cimino has left the UNO program to become head coach at Bellevue University, head coach #Jeanne Scarpello# announced this week.
Cimino left after sitting beside Scarpello all 10 of her years on the bench and in her 12 total years as an assistant at UNO, the Mavericks went 520-173-1 (.750) and played in the NCAA tournament every season. She helped coach them to a national championship in 2001 and began her UNO coaching career in 1998.
As a player, Cimino led the Mavericks to a third-place finish in the 1994 NCAA Division II national tournament and, in the process, was named to the all-North Central Conference and all-Midwest Region teams. In addition, she was named to the all-tournament team at the 1994 NCAA II Midwest Region tournament and the 1994 NCAA II final six. In only two seasons as a Maverick, Cimino set several school records before graduating, including most home runs in a career (18) and most home runs in a season (15).
Cimino was inducted into the UNO athletic Hall of Fame in 2008.
