Pending Tippecanoe School Corp. board approval, Anthrop takes over after Rush McColley, who was hired to succeed Anthrop in 2018, stepped down last month.
Anthrop led both Fountain Central and Clinton Prairie to sectional titles during nine seasons as a head coach, where she compiled a 144-65 record. After going 33-15 in two seasons with Harrison, the former Clinton Prairie point guard returned to her alma mater.

She stepped away from high school coaching after a 21-3 record and a sectional championship in 2020-21 to work with Purdue's softball program. Anthrop spent the past three seasons as Purdue women's basketball director of operations.
After going a combined 15-28 in her first two seasons as head coach at Fountain Central, Anthrop's teams posted seven straight seasons with at least 16 wins.
