Sue Donohoe has been selected to succeed Donna Noonan as the vice-president for Division I women's basketball at the NCAA national office.

Donohoe has spent four years in basketball administration at the national office, most recently as a director of the Division I Men's Basketball Championship. She joined the national office staff in December 1999 as a director of the Division I Women's Basketball Championship before moving to the men's tournament administration in the summer of 2002.

She takes over for Noonan, who ended her 16-year career at the national office in August when she decided to join the University of Memphis athletics staff as the school's interim women's golf coach. Noonan had been vice-president of the Division I Women's Basketball Championship since October 1999.

Before joining the national office staff, Donohoe was an assistant and associate commissioner of the Southland Conference.

Before that, she was the associate director of athletics at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, since 1994, where she directed the Lady Razorback Foundation, among other duties.

Donohoe also served as an assistant women's basketball coach at Arkansas from 1993 to 1994, and as an assistant women's basketball coach at Stephen F. Austin State University from 1991 to 1993.

The former chair of the NCAA Women's Basketball Rules Committee is a 1981 graduate of Louisiana Tech University, where she earned her bachelor of science degree. She also obtained her master's degree there.
