KENT, Ohio — Kent State women's basketball associate head coach Fran Recchia has been selected to participate in the prestigious 2025 TopConnect Basketball Symposium taking place at the Marriott Village at Lake Buena Vista on Monday, June 9.
Developed by ETSU Athletic Director Dr. Richard Sander, TopConnect identifies the top assistant basketball coaches in the country and connects them with mid-major Athletic Directors to provide tremendous networking and leadership development opportunities for both parties.
In its eighth year, TopConnect develops educational programming that allows these top assistant coaches to hear from a variety of successful leaders and speakers. The three-word mantra of "Connect. Prepare. Lead." identifies the purpose of TopConnect.
Since the inception of TopConnect in 2018, more than 50 assistant coach and assistant athletic director participants have been promoted to the next chair of Head Coach and Athletic Director as well as a conference commissioner.
Recchia has helped the Golden Flashes return to the top tier of the Mid-American Conference during her nine years on staff. Kent State has won 19 or more games in seven of those seasons and is one of only three MAC schools with 20-win campaigns each of the past three seasons.
