Keri Carollo will be inducted as a member of the 2026 Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame this fall. The four-time WBCA Division III Women's Coach of the Year will be recognized at the Hall of Fame Banquet on September 27 at the Glacier Canyon Lodge of the Wilderness Resort in Wisconsin Dells.
Coach Carollo has the most wins of any active Division III coach with less than 25 years at the helm of a collegiate program. In her 24 seasons leading UW-Whitewater, Carollo has amassed a record of 475-182 -- a win percentage of 72.3. On the national stage, Carollo has led the Warhawks to the NCAA Tournament 16 times with seven Sweet 16 appearances, five trips to the Elite 8, four Final Fours, a pair of third-place finishes and two national runners-up. Along the way, she coached nine players to 23 All-America honors, two academic All-Americans and was named the Regional Coach of the Year on two occasions.
A five-time WIAC Coach of the Year selection, Carollo has coached Warhawks to four conference Player of the Year honors and three WIAC Judy Kruckman Scholar Athlete awards. Under Carollo's tutelage, Warhawks have accumulated 77 All-WIAC honors.
Earlier this season, Carollo moved into second in all-time wins in the WIAC with her 473rd career victory. She holds the most wins among active coaches in the league.
