Under The Shell with Brenda Frese

Maryland basketball head coach Brenda Frese joins Sarah to discuss why a preseason trip to Croatia helped this year’s team bond, how recruiting high school kids is different than taking a shopping trip in the transfer portal, and what she remembers most from her 2006 championship-winning team. Plus, a call for your favorite starches and an ode to a different kind of slice.
