Record-setting NCAA All-America point guard Audrey Tingle is back on the West Liberty University sidelines for her second year as a student assistant coach with the Hilltopper women’s basketball program.
The Ridgewood High School graduate, who spent five seasons rewriting the West Liberty and NCAA Division II record books from her point guard spot, assists head coach Kyle Cooper and his staff with player development, on-court instruction and film work in addition to helping with on and off-campus recruiting, travel and game operations.
The West Lafayette native capped her spectacular career with one of the most impressive seasons, athletically and academically, in recent memory. A first-team All-Mountain East Conference and All-Atlantic Region selection, Tingle also earned an honorable mention spot on the WBCA Coaches' All-America Team after setting an NCAA Division II single-season record with six triple-doubles. Her seven- career triple-doubles is tied for the most in NCAA Division II history.
The Hilltopper standout ranked third in the nation with 19 double-doubles and averaged a double-double for the year with 14.1 points, 10.5 rebounds and 7.1 assists per game. Her 212 assists and 7.1 assists per game ranked No. 2 nationally and she ranked 12th in the nation with 314 rebounds despite standing just 5-6.
Tingle was the only NCAA woman at any level to post 200-plus assists and 300-plus rebounds during the regular season. Tingle was just as impressive in the classroom. A first-team NCAA Division II Academic All-American, she was featured on the NCAA main website as the 2022 NCAA Division II Academic All-American of the Year for women's basketball. Tingle graduated with a perfect 4.00 GPA in 2022 in Speech Pathology and Audiology, and later completed her MBA – again with a perfect 4.00 GPA – at West Liberty in the first summer session of 2022.
She is currently pursuing her master's in Speech Pathology and Audiology.
Tingle, a daughter of Jay and Jana Tingle, was a two-time First Team All-Ohio Division III selection as she scored 1,559 career points at Ridgewood.
She also was a two-time Eastern District Player of the Year as she averaged 19.5 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.6 steals and 5.0 assists as a senior.
