A legendary member of the Babson coaching staff, Judy Blinstrub is entering her 28th season at the helm of the women's basketball program. Also Babson's Associate Director of Athletics, Blinstrub coached both the basketball and soccer programs to regional prominence before stepping down from soccer prior to the 2005 season. She is currently the only coach in the history of Division III women's sports with 400 wins in basketball and 200 wins in soccer.

On the hardwood, Blinstrub has posted a magnificent 474-254 (.651) record over 27 seasons. During her tenure, Babson has made six appearances in the NCAA Tournament, including trips to the Sweet 16 in 1993 and 1994, regional trips in 1999 and 2009, and back-to-back appearances in the Elite 8 in each of the last two seasons. In addition, Babson won the 1986 MAIAW State Championship and captured conference titles in 1991, 1993, 1999, 2009, 2010, and 2011. The Beavers have also appeared in the ECAC Tournament eight times, including a trip in 2005. Blinstrub was named conference Coach of the Year in 1990, 1993, 2005, 2009, 2010, and 2011, and she won District I and New England Coach of the Year honors following the both 1993 and 2011 seasons. Blinstrub is coming off perhaps the greatest season of her career, as she guided the Beavers to a magnificent 30-1 record - including 30 straight wins before finally suffering their only defeat in the National Quarterfinals - and she was inducted into the Babson Athletics Hall of Fame.

A native of Newton, Mass., Blinstrub came to Babson in 1984 after serving as coach and athletics director at Mount Alvernia and Brimmer and May School in Newton. In addition to Babson's Hall of Fame, she is a also member of the Northeast Women's Hall of Fame and the Athletics Hall of Fame at her alma mater Bridgewater State.
