Schweyen, UM settle for $350,000

The University of Montana and former Lady Griz basketball coach Shannon Schweyen have reached a $350,000 settlement stemming from the end of her tenure at UM, 406mtsports.com reported Wednesday.

In October, Schweyen lost her discrimination suit against UM, filed after the school did not renew her contract following the 2019-20 season. She appealed that ruling to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, which led to mediation. Both parties filed a motion to dismiss on April 22.

The settlement was approved last month, according to state records publicly available online.
