+**Marquette Women's Head Coach:** [[1996]] - present
 Believe, Commit, Mature, Respect, Thankfulness - These are the five principles that serve as the foundation of the Marquette women's basketball team. And with these principles Marquette lives by each day, head coach Terri Mitchell has molded the Golden Eagles into champions.
@@ Line 15: / Line 15: @@
 Since becoming the fourth women's basketball coach in Marquette University history, Mitchell has paved a path of excellence. That journey began in her very first year, as Mitchell was at the helm for the largest turnaround in school history. She guided MU to a 21-10 record in 1996-97, which was 13 wins better than the previous season's record of 8-20. It was the largest turnaround of any first-year head coach and third-best single-season turnaround among all NCAA Division I schools that year.
 The drive and commitment to excellence Mitchell had her first year as a head coach continues to be instilled in her teams year after year. Her players don't question it; they know it and live it each day. One of the team's favorite Mitchell sayings is "we didn't come to just compete in the BIG EAST, we came to win it."
-USA Basketball
-The respect and admiration for the way Terri Mitchell relates to her players and her success in the BIG EAST Conference led to an opportunity with USA Basketball. During the summer of 2008, Mitchell served as an assistant coach for USA Basketball's U18 Women's National Team. Under her guidance, Team USA won the gold medal while rolling through the FIBA Americas Championship in Buenos Aires, Argentina undefeated.
-Marquette has also had other ties to USA Basketball during Mitchell's tenure, as Krystal Ellis was a finalist for a spot on the 2007 USA Women's Pan American Games Team.

 Prior to becoming head coach, Mitchell was an assistant for the Golden Eagles for five seasons. She was instrumental in recruiting Marquette's 1996-97 freshman class, which was ranked 12th in the nation by the Blue Star Index. Marquette posted an 87-61 record and made three postseason appearances during Mitchell's tenure as an assistant.

-"Champions" is a word Mitchell's team speaks daily. Mitchell is adamant that one's words lead to one's destiny. It did on April 5, 2008, when the Golden Eagles marched into the Breslin Center at Michigan State and knocked off the Spartans, 81-66, to claim the Women's National Invitation Tournament Championship. It marked the fourth national title in Marquette history and the first in women's history. \\
+Mitchell was named head coach on June 6, 1996. In her first season leading the Golden Eagles, Mitchell set a few precedents. She shattered the record for most wins by a Marquette first-year head coach, 21, and holds the distinction of reaching 50 wins faster than any coach in Marquette history. In addition, she became the only coach in school history to take her team to the NCAA Tournament in her first season. \\
-Up against a bevy of talented teams - the BIG EAST sent 12 teams to post season play - Mitchell led the youngest team in the BIG EAST Conference into battle with six freshmen and only one returning starter. The Golden Eagles fought through adversity, and won over 20 games for the third straight season.

Both continued their stellar play through the team's championship run and were honored with WNIT All-Tournament Team accolades. Ellis was named tournament MVP. \\
