and a great new assistant

With over twenty-five years of NCAA Division I women's basketball experience, including six seasons as head coach at Gonzaga University, Kellee Barney has joined the Montana State program as an assistant coach, announced Bobcat head coach Tricia Binford.

Barney replaces Giuliana Mendiola, who left MSU to take an assistant coaching job at UC Riverside.

“It's not often that you get a coach with Kellee's experience,” Binford said. “Her familiarity with the Northwest region, along with the west coast, will be beneifical to the program. In addition, she has a wide array of talents and knowledge of the game. She knows what it takes to run a successful program. Throughout her career she has done a great job of connecting with student-athletes and getting the most out of them. We're excited that she is a Bobcat.”

This is great news.

Binford is a class act and a great coach, glad we have her for at least 3 more years.

This is huge! I know she has fallen a bit short of stringing together championship seasons but she is arguable the best bball coach in the Big Sky (mens or womens). I would put Selvig ahead of her but she is an up and comer for sure.
