Women's Basketball

Steve Wallace joins the Rhode Island women's basketball program as the team's director of basketball operations. Wallace recently completed his second year as the graduate assistant manager at Kansas. In that position, Wallace was responsible for working with the coaching staff with pre-game scouting of opponents, editing and designing all team videos, organizing the men's practice team, and serving as the assistant director of the Bonnie Henrickson summer camps and clinics. During the summer of 2008, he had the opportunity to go out on the road recruiting, due to the maternity leave of a member of the KU coaching staff. While with the Jayhawk program, KU made two WNIT appearances, including the 2009 championship game. Wallace worked with the on-court development of 2009 First Team All-Big 12 selection Danielle McCray and 2008 Big 12 All-Rookie pick Krysten Boogaard. As an undergraduate, Wallace spent two seasons as a team manager with the Kansas women's basketball team. During that time, he was responsible for video breakdown and was the practice team captain. In addition to his work at Kansas, Wallace spent two summers as an intern in the basketball operations office for the Utah Jazz, helping the team prepare for the NBA Draft and Rocky Mountain Revue. He earned his degree in secondary education-social studies from Kansas in 2007.
