    Women Hire Assistant Coach

    Link

    Xavier head women's basketball coach Brian Neal has announced the hiring of Mark Stephens as assistant coach. Stephens brings over 13 years of coaching experience to Xavier.

    "From the beginning of our conversations, Mark's work ethic, basketball IQ and interpersonal skills were evident and I'm confident he will greatly benefit Xavier basketball," Neal said.

    Stephens was previously the head women's varsity basketball coach at Crispus Attucks Medical Magnet HS in Indianapolis for the past four years. His team posted a 38-9 record over the past two seasons, capturing back-to-back PAAC Conference Titles.

    Stephens was also the assistant club director for the Indianapolis-based Nike Lady Gym Rats AAU Team from 2005-16. All told, he has coached 62 players who have played collegiately – including 41 NCAA Division I athletes.
    "He's a little bit ball-dominant, he needs to have the ball in his hands, and he's not a good shooter." Ball-dominant … isn't that a nice way of calling someone a ball hog? Where is my Jay Bilas Thesaurus?
