UW-Stevens Point's Berg Gym Floor To Be Named “Shirley Egner Court”

Tuesday, October 4th, 2022 -- 8:11 AM

University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point has announced that it will honor retired women's basketball coach Shirley Egner by naming the Berg Gymnasium floor "Shirley Egner Court".

The naming ceremony will take place on November 19th at halftime of the UW-Stevens Point versus North Central College women's basketball game.

The court naming is in honor of Coach Egner's dedication to basketball, teaching, leadership development and mentoring student-athletes on and off the court in her various roles throughout her 33-year career.

Egner, a four-time WIAC Coach of the Year, won the league's honor in 2003-04, 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2010-11 seasons.  The Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) named her Division III Women's Coach of the Year three-straight years from 2010 to 2012. In 2010, she was inducted into the WBCA Hall of Fame. The Pointers made 10 trips to the NCAA Tournament under Egner. In addition to the National Championship in 2002, her Pointers took fourth in 2004 and reached the Sweet 16 three other times as well as going to the Elite 8 in 2010.
