BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Indiana head women's basketball coach Sharon Versyp has resigned from her position with the Hoosiers to accept a similar position at Purdue University.

"We appreciate Sharon's efforts at Indiana and wish her well in her future endeavors," IU Athletics Director Rick Greenspan said.

Versyp led the Hoosiers to a 19-14 record overall and a 9-7 mark in the Big Ten Conference in her only season and guided the team to its first post-season appearance, the Women's National Invitation Tournament (WNIT), since 2001-02.

IU will immediately embark upon a national search for Versyp's successor.
