Michelle is a tireless worker, brings extensive experience in both operations and coaching, and her love for Marquette runs deep. This is a home run hire for our program!”
Nason was director of operations at Wisconsin from 2014-20.
“I have had the pleasure to work alongside Cara for many years before and I am honored to have this opportunity,” Nason said. “Marquette is home, and I couldn’t be more excited to be a part of Marquette women’s basketball again.”
