It’s been a whirlwind summer for Annie Thomas, who got married, relocated to Ohio, found a home and landed a new job within a span of several months.
Thomas, a former standout with the University of Wisconsin women’s basketball team, was hired as an assistant coach at Cleveland State. She will handle recruiting, and community and academic endeavors for the program, in addition to working with Vikings post players. Cleveland State is coached by Kate Peterson Abiad, a River Falls native who served as a UW assistant for six seasons.
