TEMPE, AZ (AZFamily) — Arizona State University and women’s basketball head coach Molly Miller have agreed to a contract extension following a historic, record-breaking first season.
Miller, who was introduced as the program’s head coach in March 2025, orchestrated a season filled with milestones, including winning the first 15 games of the season and completing a three-game sweep of in-state rival Arizona.
In her first year, Miller led the team to a 24-11 record and secured a berth in the NCAA Tournament, the first time the team has made the “Big Dance” since 2019.
The details of the contract extension were not immediately available.
“Molly’s impact has been immediate, creating real momentum and putting Sun Devil Women’s Basketball in the national spotlight,” athletics director Graham Rossini said in a statement. “This extension reflects our confidence in her leadership, her vision and the elite program she is building at ASU, one capable of competing for championships. As the season begins Nov. 2, we need Sun Devil fans to pack Desert Financial Arena and support this exciting roster.”
Before taking over at Arizona State, Miller compiled an impressive 117-38 record at Grand Canyon University.
“My family and staff are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to continue building at Arizona State,” Miller said. “We believe deeply in this department and most importantly the people who make this place and our program one-of-a-kind. I am thankful for the leadership and support of President Crow, Graham Rossini and our administration. I love this community and believe in what we are building together. We are excited about what’s ahead and to have a chance to build something special at ASU. I cannot wait to keep working alongside our players, staff and the Sun Devil family to make that vision a reality.”
