Former Blue Hen standout point guard Carrie Timmins will begin her second season with the University of Delaware women's basketball staff as an assistant coach under head coach Tina Martin in 2004-05.

Timmins, 23, was a four-year letterwinner who started as a senior in 2002-03 and led the Blue Hen women to a share of the Colonial Athletic Association regular season title and a second straight trip to the Women's National Invitation Tournament (WNIT).

A native of New Oxford, PA (New Oxford High School), Timmins played four seasons under Martin and was part of some of the most successful squads in Blue Hen history. Delaware compiled a four-year record of 92-29 during her tenure, advanced to post-season play three times, and led the squad to an unprecedented four straight 20-win seasons. The Blue Hens won the America East title and made their first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance in 2001 and made their first Women's NIT appearances in 2002.

After serving in a backup point guard role behind Megan Dellegrotti for three seasons, Timmins took over the starting point guard role last season and thrived, leading the Blue Hens to a 22-9 record, a share of the CAA title with perennial champion Old Dominion, and a second straight berth in the Women's NIT Tournament.

Timmins served as a co-captain and started 30 of 31 games, averaging 6.4 points per game and ranked among the league leaders with 91 assists and 28 steals. She scored a career-high 14 points in the Hens' regular season win over ODU and in the team's CAA Tournament win over Virginia Commonwealth and dished out a career-high six assists several times.

An honor student who will earn her bachleor's degree in health and exercise science from Delaware this December, Timmins finished her career tied for eighth on the all-time UD games played list with 111.

She was a CAA Ehlers Leadership Award nominee in 2002-03 as well as a Verizon/College Sports Information Directors of America Academic All-American nominee.

In March, 2002, she was honored by the National Strength and Conditioning Association as an "All-American" for her dedication to conditioning and weight training. She twice earned the basketball team's "Top Conditioned Athlete Award".

Timmins is single and resides in Newark.
