Marcie Alberts

Marcie Alberts (born April 12, 1975) is an American former professional basketball player and current coach. Alberts participated in the inaugural season of the WNBA.

College career Alberts played for Ohio State University during her college athletic career from 1993 to 1997. Her overall team's record through her college years was 64 - 56. She had 91.3% of her free-throw attempts in 1996–97, the highest recorded free-throw percentage for an Ohio State senior. She made 203 during her OSU years which was the 2nd-highest 3-pointers made in a Buckeye's career at the time.

Alberts graduated from OSU in 1997 with a Bachelor's of Science degree.

WNBA After graduating from OSU, although she would not be selected in the draft, Alberts was still able to play in the WNBA's inaugural season for the Cleveland Rockers. Her debut game would be played on July 7, 1997, in an 81 - 70 win over the Los Angeles Sparks where she recorded 1 assist and no other stats in 7 minutes of playing time.

Alberts' WNBA career would be incredibly short, as she only played 5 games with the Rockers in 1997 and these ended up being her only 5 games in the league. Her 5th and final game was played on July 15, 1997, where the Rockers would lose to the New York Liberty 59 - 76 with Alberts recording 1 assist, 1 rebound and 1 steal, but no points.

In her 5 WNBA career games, Alberts did not score a single point (missing both of her only 2 field goals attempts and never attempting a free throw) and had totals of 30 minutes playing time, 1 rebound, 3 assists and 2 steals.

Coaching career She was head coach of Orrville High School's girls basketball team, earning a 117 - 45 record during her tenure. She then became the women's head basketball coach at Heidelberg College. She was promoted to first assistant before the 2018-2019 basketball season.

She was inducted into the Ohio Basketball Hall of Fame on May 21, 2016, at the 11th Annual Ceremony in Columbus.
