With the season underway and armed with a contract extension, Mount St. Mary's women's basketball coach Antoine White is this week's guest on The Final Score podcast.
White chats with host Greg Swatek about his contract extension, which was just announced by the school this week and keeps him as the coach through the 2030-31 season. He talks about coming to the Mount as a coaching intern from the College of Southern Vermont, where he played for former Mount men's coach Dan Engelstad.
Coach White moved quickly up the ranks to the top assistant coach and then became head coach prior to the 2021-22 season. He promptly led the Mount women to a Northeast Conference championship and an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.
What were his first impressions of the place? Why was now the right time to extend his contract?
The Mountaineers opened their season Tuesday night with a 83-49 loss to Richmond, which is ranked No. 24 in the country. What were his impressions of that game? What are the keys for the Mount women this season as they try to win their first Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference championship?
Prior to that conversation, FNP sports reporter Alexander Dacy joins Greg to discuss the fall sports playoffs for Frederick County teams, which include state semifinals for field hockey, soccer and girls flag football, state cross championships this weekend at Hereford High School in Parkton and the first round of the regional football playoffs.

Rob Ambrose, Middletown Native, Former Towson Football
As the start of another college football season draws near, Rob Ambrose, a Middletown native who just accepted the offensive coordinator position for the Shepherd University football team, is this week's guest on The Final Score podcast, alongside his wife Melissa.
Ambrose chats with host Greg Swatek about how the opportunity at Shepherd suddenly came about within the last month and why it's the right place for him to resume his coaching career on a higher level.
He talks about his deep family and personal connections to the university, including the chance to coach his son, Riley, is will be a senior wide receiver for the Rams this season.
Ambrose also talks about his exit from Towson University after 14 seasons as the head coach at his alma mater in December of 2022 and his major health ordeal that ensued soon thereafter.
He was diagnosed with melanoma, and it was quickly discovered that it had spread to his brain and become a Stage 4 condition. He was given a 50-50 chance to live beyond five years at the time.
Ambrose talks about the proactive and aggressive way he has fought the disease and how his positive mindset and stubborn refusal to let the cancer get the best of him has significantly improved both his health and his outlook.
Recent scans have shown no traces of the cancer, and Ambrose feels as healthy as he has been in a long time.
