"It is a thrill to join the Maryland Basketball staff," said Campbell. "Coach Frese is one of the best in the business, and I look forward to learning from her and the rest of her staff. I know this is the beginning of a great journey with the team. The University of Maryland is one of the top universities in the country for academics and athletics, and it is an honor to be a Terp and to join such a prestigious institution. There is an excitement around Maryland Women's Basketball, and I look forward to meeting many of the great fans that surround this program."
