KENNESAW, Ga. – Kennesaw State women's basketball head coach
Agnus Berenato announced on Wednesday (Aug. 2) the hiring of Tiffany Webster as director of basketball operations.
Â
A scholar-athlete while a member of the Quinnipiac women's basketball program, Webster will be responsible for handling the day-to-day operations of the KSU program, including coordinating team travel, practices, NCAA logs and community service initiatives.
Â
"Tiffany comes to KSU with an outstanding background in women's basketball, a basketball family, and has been associated with great basketball institutions," Berenato said. "I am excited for Tiffany to get started with our program and help us reach the next level. I really enjoy her enthusiasm for not only the game of basketball but for educating the student-athlete."Â
Â
Webster most recently served as a student intern with the Xavier women's basketball program during the 2016-17 season. While working with the Musketeers, Webster was responsible for creating the recruiting schedule, coaches' itinerary, and assisting with individual workouts in addition to handling a myriad of other responsibilities. She also has experience as a student intern with Harvard women's basketball.
Â
"I am honored to work for Coach Berenato. I think she is an amazing person with a lot of character and integrity," Webster said. "She genuinely cares about her players and staff, and I look forward to assisting her, the assistant coaches, student-athletes and the entire program."
Â
This past spring, Webster was selected by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) to the "So You Want to be a Coach" program, a three-day workshop held March 29-31 in conjunction with the WBCA Convention in Dallas, Texas.
Â
Showing a commitment to community service, Webster was chosen by Crossover Basketball and Scholars Academy to travel to Chennai, India, during the summer of 2016 for an 18-day mission where she helped teach impoverished children how to play basketball, and spoke about leadership, character and gender equality.
Â
While a member of the Quinnipiac women's basketball team, Webster helped the Bobcats to an undefeated conference season, MAAC Tournament title and berth in the 2016 NCAA Tournament.
Â
Webster's deep basketball lineage includes her father, Darryl, who played basketball at George Washington University and brother, Christian, who led Harvard to three Ivy League championships, and is a current assistant coach at Virginia Tech. She also has a younger sister, Taylor, who is one of the top ranked shooting guards in the Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia area.
Â
Webster earned a bachelor's of arts degree in communications from Quinnipiac in 2016, and received a master's degree in sports administration from Xavier this past May.
