Longtime Stanford Director of Women's Basketball Tara VanDerveer announced her retirement on Tuesday, according to a press release from Stanford Athletics. VanDerveer will be stepping down from her role on May 8, and she will be moving into an advisory position with Stanford and the Athletics Department. May 8 is the 39th anniversary of her original date of hire. Stanford is currently negotiating with Kate Paye, a former player of VanDerveer's, to take over the role.

"Basketball is the greatest group project there is and I am so incredibly thankful for every person who has supported me and our teams throughout my coaching career," said VanDerveer. "I've been spoiled to coach the best and brightest at one of the world's foremost institutions for nearly four decades. Coupled with my time at Ohio State and Idaho, and as head coach of the United States National Team, it has been an unforgettable ride.
